"Postcard" is the first single from Grace for Drowning, the second solo studio album by the English musician Steven Wilson.

[2] Reception for the song has been generally positive, with critics praising it for being more melodic and accessible than much of the Grace for Drowning album.

William Ruhlmann of AllMusic interpreted it to be a song about lost love, writing, "In the relatively sparse lyrics that Wilson sings with a calm, British-accented tenor, he seems melancholy at first, apparently suffering from the aftermath of a romantic breakup.

"[3] Brice Ezell of PopMatters described it as one of the most accessible, melodic, and strongest songs of the album.

[6] American Aftermath called it a "gorgeous ballad" that "could fill even the coldest shell of a person with emotion".
