Kenny Royers -- Daytime friends

And he'll tell her - He's working late again
But she knows too 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 are night time lovers
hopin'  no one else discovers
where they go- what they do
in their secret hideaway


Daytime friends are nighttime lovers -
They don't want to 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 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.
