And he'll tell her - He's working late again
|
But she knows to well there's something goin' on.
|
She's been neglected - and she needs a friend
|
So her trembling fingers dial the telephone.
|
|
And Lord, it hurts her - doin' this again
|
He's the best friend that her husband ever knew.
|
When she's lonely - he's more than just a friend
|
He's the one she longs her body to.
|
|
|
Daytime friends and nighttime lovers -
|
Hoping no one else discovers
|
Where they go - What they do -
|
In their secret hideaway
|
|
Daytime friends and nighttime lovers -
|
They don't want to hurt the others
|
So they love - In the nighttime -
|
And shake hands in the light of day.

|
And when it's over - there's no peace of mind
|
Just a longin' for the way things should have been.
|
And she wonders - Why some men never find
|
That a woman needs a lover and a friend.
|
|
|
Daytime friends and nighttime lovers ...
