It was sealed with her little heart's love
Sent our mail to heaven, to daddy,
to your new home somewhere up above.
I knew that it couldn't be made
So I opened the letter and I read
Here's what the little girl said,
Mommy and I love someone new
She told me to try to understand
She can't go on living alone
Please Daddy, don't be mad at Mommy
for all she's been through
Cause He will never take your place,
He'll be just filling in for you.
I hope, Daddy, you can forgive her
So I'm sealing this letter with love
And I'm sending an air mail to heaven,
to your new home somewhere up above.
Well, I finished and I folded the letter,
the tears rolling down my face,
who was taking her daddy's place.
For I was the new man she mentioned,
who was taking her daddy's place.
