[Verse 1]
I wait for the postman
To bring me a letter
And I wait for the good Lord to make me feel better
And I carry the weight of the world on my shoulders
Family in crisis that only grows older
Why'd you have to go?
Why'd you have to go?
Why'd you have to go?

[Chorus]
Daughter to father, daughter to father
I am broken, but I am hoping
Daughter to father, daughter to father
I am cryin'
A part of me's dying
But these are, these are
The confessions of a broken heart

[Verse 2]
And I wear all your old clothes
Your polo sweater
I dream of another you
One who would never
Never leave me alone to pick up the pieces
Daddy to hold me
That's what I needed
[Pre-Chorus]
So why'd you have to go?
Why'd you have to go?
Why'd you have to go?

[Chorus]
Daughter to father, daughter to father
I don't know you, but I still want to
Daughter to father, daughter to father
Tell me the truth, did you ever love me?
'Cause these are, these are
The confessions of a broken heart
Of a broken heart

[Bridge]
I love you
I love you
I love you
I, I love you

[Chorus]
Daughter to father, daughter to father
I don't know you, but I still want to
Daughter to father, daughter to father
Tell me the truth, did you ever love me?
Did you ever love me?
[Post-Chorus]
These are
The confessions of a broken heart
Oh, yeah

[Outro]
I wait for the postman
To bring me a letter
