Mommy For A Day

I go to see my little girl each

Sunday afternoon And how

I dread the words I know she'll say

She'll ask me when I'm coming home

I'll answer pretty soon

But I know I'm just her mommy for a day

She's much too young to realize why mommy can't come home

And that her daddy wanted things this way

We kiss goodbye and my heart breaks to walk away alone

To have to be her mommy for a day
