One of the greatest duets of all time!
I think it's about two people in relationships who do not love the people they are in the relationship with. So they meet secretly to have an affair.
It also could mean a couple having sex out of wedlock, but I think the adultry thing makes more sense especially when they say:
Barbra: "You battle on with the love you're livin' on
You gotta be mine"
Barry: "You battle on with the love you're buildin' on"
I think they're talking about their other relationships with people they don't love.
I never thought of the song that way, but I can see how you could. It definitely is a couple in distress. Barry and Barbara play off one another very well.

I completely agree with the affair. "It's gotta be night and day", meaning they want it ALL the time, not just in the night.

Great duet for sure. I would LOVE to see Justin Timberlake remake this with someone, but not sure who the girl should be.
