Daytime Friends

Ben Peters

© Ben Peters Music, BMI

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
But 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 night time lovers hopin' no one else discovers
Where they go what they do in their secret hide away
Daytime friends and night time lovers they don't wanna hurt the other
So they love in the night time and shake hand 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

Daytime friends and night time lovers hopin' no one else discovers...
Daytime friends and night time lovers hopin' no one else discovers...
