Signed, sealed and delivered
A package containin' my heart
To open, remove the wrapper
But please don't tear it apart
You tore out this heart when you left me
You left me alone and so blue
I'm sending it special deliv'ry
Please handle with care, it's for you
(Instrumental Break)
It's all that I have to offer
But darlin' you know that it's true
Signed, sealed and delivered
The postman will bring it to you
I thought perhaps you would keep it
Just for a while, don't you see
Oh darlin', please keep it forever
Without you it's no good to me
Signed, sealed and delievered
A package containin' my heart
I send it to you as a token
I'm sorry we're so far apart
