Night and day,
you are the one
Only you beneath the moon
and under the sun
Whether near to me or far,
it's no mat ter, darling, where you are,
I think of you night and day,
day and night.
Why is it so that this longing for you
follows wherever I go?
In the roaring 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 yearning
burn ing inside of me.
And its torment won't be through
Till you let me spend my life
making love to you
Day and night,
night and day
Like the beat, beat,
beat of the tom -tom
When the jungle shadows fall
Like the tick, tick, tock of a stately clock
As it stands against the wall
Like the drip, drip, drip of the raindrop
When the summer showers through
So a voice within me keeps repeating
You, you, you
Night an d day,
you are the one
Only you beneath the moon
and under the sun
Whether near to me or far
It's the only way you are,
I think of you
Night and day,
day and night
Why is it so that this longing for you
Fallen forever ago?
In the roaring traffic's boom
On the silence of my lonely room
I think of you night and day
Night and day
Under the hide of me
There's a hole,
such a hungry yearning
Burn ing inside of me
And it's torment won't get through
Till you let me spend my life
Making love to you
Day and night
Night an d day
