Postcard From Heaven
Lighthouse Family Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you never say goodbye
To the best thing in your life
There are things you don't appreciate
At all

So it's best that you don't try
Holding back the time
Are you ever gonna be
Quite satisfied

Postcard from heaven
Go to where you belong
Never find the perfect situation
until you know where you're from

If you ever say goodbye
No regrets, I won't ask why
And I wish you all the best luck
In the world

Should you ever change your mind
Holding back the sunshine
Are you ever gonna be
Quite satisfied

Postcard from heaven
Go to where you belong
Never find the perfect situation
until you know where you're from

Postcard from heaven
Go to where you belong




Never find the perfect situation
until you know where you're from

The message in the chorus of the song reinforces this idea of letting go of the past and moving forward. The repeated lyric “Postcard from heaven, go to where you belong” encourages us to think about our origins and returning to them as the key to finding our way.

To my daughter Winter who I miss every second of my life I'd give anything to know you are safe and happy. To hear you say "I love you daddy" just once and to tell you how sorry I am that I couldn't protect you like I promised.

I love you more than I ever thought possible and it hurts more than I ever feared losing someone could.

Rest in peace my angel
