And he'll tell her he's working late again
But she knows too well there's somethin' goin' on
She's been neglected and she needs a friend
So her trembling finger dials the telephone
Lord, it hurts her doin' this again
He's her best friend and her husband ever knew
When she's lonely, he's more than just a friend
He's the one she longs to give her body to
(Chorus)
Daytime friends and nighttime lovers
Hoping no one else discovers
Where they go or what they do
In their secret hideaway
Daytime friends and nighttime lovers
They don't wanna hurt the other
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 longing for the way things should have been
And she wonders why some men never find
That a woman needs a lover and a friend
(Chorus)
Daytime friends and nighttime lovers
Hoping no one else discovers
Where they go or what they do
In their secret hideaway
Daytime friends and nighttime lovers
They don't wanna hurt the other
So they love in the nighttime
And shake hands in the light of day
(repeat Chorus to end)
