The tidal force function of the two-body system is defined. It is formed by two parts, reflecting the direct, as well as, the indirect tidal effects. It enables deriving the tidal torques due to both the tidal effects independently of density distributions. The Stokes parameters of both bodies, the Love numbers and phase lag angles are sufficient for the solution.
