Night & Day
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
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
It's no matter 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 burning
Inside of me
And this torment won't be through
Till you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night, night and day
