"He'll Never Take The Place Of You" lyrics

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 pull 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
