he'll never take the place of you

sure he gives me everything i ask for a kind of love that i never knew

and every night he comes home at the same time

but he'll never ever take the place of you

he kisses me goodbye every morning does the little things you've always used to do

but no matter how he tries it ain't the same thing

'cause he'll never ever take the place of you

so don't try to see me when you come back to town

i finally found myself up straight so please don't drag me down

i'll be good to him i'll make him happy i owe him so much what else can i do

and our little boy already calls him daddy

still he'll never ever take the place of you

no

he'll never know

oh that i still love you so

and he'll never ever take the place of you
