My Girl Friday

She stands there with her suitcase

We've been through all this before

I know it's gonna hurt me

When she walks out the door

I wish things could be different

We didn't have to say goodbye

But someone else is in the picture

And we don't see eye to eye

The minute that she leaves here

She'll run straight into their arms

Gotta find the strength to let her go

Although it breaks my heart

One last time I hold her tightly

And kiss her on the cheek

As she rushes to the car I'm left

To face the lonely week

She's my girl Friday as far as I'm concerned

I'm lost without her don't know which way to turn

Thursday takes forever and Monday comes too soon

But at least she's my girl Friday till Sunday afternoon

She stands up in the back seat

And softly waves goodbye

I turn away before I want to

She don't need to see me cry

I know that I'd go crazy

If it wasn't for the fact

That I'll always be her daddy

And they'll have to bring her back
