Intro
Verse 1
The Kettle’s Gone Quiet Now,
The Cups All Lined Up By The Sink,
No Voices Drifting Through The Kitchen,
No One Stopping By To Think.
And I Still See Your Seat By The Window,
Tea With No Sugar In Your Cup,
You Said I’m Sweet Enough Already,
And Laughed As You Stirred It Up.
Chorus
Everybody Called You Mum,
A Welcome Waiting For Anyone Who’d Come,
You Turned A House Into A Heartbeat,
You Opened Your Heart Like The Morning Sun,
You Never Counted What You Gave Away,
You Just Gave Until It Hurt,
You Made A Home Where Everyone Belonged,
Your Love Is Still At Work.
Verse 2
You Liked Your Abba Playing Loud,
A Chat That Lasted Half The Night,
Eastenders On The Tv,
Friends Dropping In Just To Reunite.
You Saw The World Through Cruise Ship Windows,
Made Friends On Every Ship,
But Somehow Every Road Led Home,
At The End Of Every Trip.
Chorus
Everybody Called You Mum,
A Welcome Waiting For Anyone Who’d Come,
You Turned A House Into A Heartbeat,
You Opened Your Heart Like The Morning Sun,
You Never Counted What You Gave Away,
You Just Gave Until It Hurt,
You Made A Home Where Everyone Belonged,
Your Love Is Still At Work.
Bridge
And Somewhere Dad Is Waiting,
With That Twinkle In His Eye,
The Boy You Fell In Love With,
Back When You Were Sixteen, Full Of Life.
Twenty-One Years Apart,
Now There’s Nothing Left To Miss,
Maybe Heaven Looks A Little Bit
Like Your First Dance And Your First Kiss.
I Tried To Call You Just This Morning,
Then I Realised You're Not There,
My Eyes Welled Up With Tears,
Then I Felt You In The Air.
Final Chorus
Everybody Called You Mum,
A Welcome Waiting For Anyone Who’d Come,
The Love You Gave Still Carries On,
A Little Piece In Everyone.
The House Is Quiet, But Not Empty,
You Never Really Left It Behind,
Because Love Like Yours Doesn’t End,
It Will Live Forever In My Mind.
Outro
Tea With No Sugar,
Abba Softly Playing,
A House Full Of People Calling Your Name-
Every Morning Brings A.... Little Dawn.
