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
Don't try to see me
When you come back to town
I finally hold 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
