Night and Day

Like the beat, beat, beat of the tom tom

When the jungle shadows fall

Like the tick, tick, tock of the stately clock

As it stands against the wall

Like the drip, drip, drip of the raindrops

When the summer show'are is through

So a voice within me keeps repeating

You, you, you.

Night and day

You are the one

Only you beneath the moon

And under the sun

Whether near to me or far

No matter, darling Where you are

I think of you

Night and day

Day and night

Why it is so

That this longing for you

Follows wherever I go.

In the roarin' traffic's boom

In the silence of my lonely room

I think of you

Night and day

Night and day

Under the hide of me

There's an oh such a hungry

Yearnin' burnin' inside of me

And its torment won't be through

'Til you let me spend my life

Making love to you

Day and night

Night and day
