Daytime Friends Lyrics

Daytime friends / Kenny Rogers 1976

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 then 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 want a-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-longing for the way things should have been
And she wonders
Why some men never find
That a wmoan needs a lover a friend

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 a-hurt the others
So they love in the nighttime
And shake hands in the light of day
