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 to give 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 wanna 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...
They don't wanna to hurt the others
So they love...In the nighttime...
And shake hands in the light of day
