A Birthday Card
Hello Mr. Postman.
I need to mail this card.
Im not sure how much postage,
For it must travel very far.
No... Not to California.
Or anywhere in the States.
I must get it to a mailbox,
Just outside those pearly gates.
There's a birthday coming up,
For a special someone there.
The pain I feel this time of year,
Is more than I can bear.
I've got a special one this year.
It's filled with ALL my love.
That's why I must send it,
To Heaven up above.
It's addressed to My Everything.
But you'll know where it goes.
It's always been a special one,
That Heaven only knows.
Im asking you to deliver it.,
To where it needs to be.
See to it that he gets it
Since you can't bring him back to me.
