(Cole Porter)
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 shower is through
And a voice within me keeps repeating
You you you you.
Night and day you are the one
Only you beneath the moon or 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 oh 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 burning 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.
--- Instrumental ---
And its torment won't be through
Till you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night, night and day.
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 the stately clock
As it stands against the wall.
Like the drip drip drip of the raindrops
When the summer shower is through
And a voice within me keeps repeating
You you you you.
Night and day you are the one
Only you beneath the moon or 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 oh 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 burning 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.
--- Instrumental ---
And its torment won't be through
Till you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night, night and day.
Day and night, night and day...
