Part‐Time Lover

[Verse 1: Stevie Wonder]

Call up, ring once, hang up the phone

To let me know you made it home

Don't want nothing to be wrong with part-time lover

If she's with me, I'll blink the lights

To let you know tonight's the night

For me and you, my part-time lover

[Chorus]

We are undercover passion on the run

Chasing love up against the sun

We are strangers by day, lovers by night

Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right

[Verse 2]

If I'm with friends and we should meet

Just pass me by, don't even speak

Know the word's "discreet" with part-time lovers

But if there's some emergency

Have a male friend to ask for me

So then she won't peek, it's really you, my part-time lover

[Chorus]

We are undercover passion on the run

Chasing love up against the sun

We are strangers by day, lovers by night

Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right

[Bridge: Luther Vandross, (Part-Time Lovers)]

Da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-pa-da-da-da

(Part-time lovers)

De-hee, da-pa-da-da-da-da, dadadadadadada, pa-da-da-da, pa-pa-da-pa-pa-pa-pa-da-da-da

(Part-time lovers)

[Chorus]

We are undercover passion on the run, yeah

Chasing love up against the sun

We are strangers by day, lovers by night

Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right

[Verse 3]

I've got something that I must tell

Last night someone rang our doorbell

And it was not you, my part-time lover

And then a man called our exchange

But didn't want to leave his name

I guess that two can play the game

Of part-time lovers

You and me, part-time lovers

But, she and he, part-time lovers
