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'r is through,
So a voice within me keeps repeating, you, you, you.
Night and day, day and night 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?
I 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.
