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

I loved her dad with all my heart they lied and ruined our home

Oh why did he believe the things they said

I pray in time he'll change his mind and take me back once more

Then I'll not be her mommy for a day

She's much too young to realize
