"Monday"
(Arbeeny / St. James)

Trish, she was a writer
'Til a stranger came her way
Said he'd stay to be the father
And he was gone the next day
Seems like an awful lot of years got written for her

Harry's up in college
With loans to be repaid
Trying to live up to expectations
And the promises he'd made
Sometimes it feels like a losing battle

No one knows what good will come
From all this struggling that we've done
Sometimes less is so much more
Tell me, what's it all for?

All I need is your arms around me
All I want is a smile to light my way
Help me forget today is Monday

Me, I like to worry
'Cause worrying's for free
I put my head under the covers
And wonder what's come over me
I'll stay here til this whole damn thing blows over

Will your job be here tomorrow?
Will they sell it for a song?
Will you be a good investment
'Til something better comes along?
All my friends are living in a state of frenzy

Then it hits me like a shot
I don't need what I haven't got
Once put away my childish things
Now I'm getting them out again
All I need is your arms around me
All I want is a smile to light my way
Help me forget today is Monday
All I want is to keep things simple
All I need is a reason to believe
Help me forget today....

Fair winds, calm seas
Cool earth, warm breeze
Bright sun, tall trees

All I need is your arms around me
All I want is a smile to light my way
Help me forget today is Monday
All I want is your arms around me
A warm, soft place to lay my head
Help me forget today is Monday
All I want is to keep things simple
All I need is a reason to believe
Help me forget today is Monday
