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 t he drip drip drip of the raindrops
When the summer shower is through
So a v oice within me keeps repeating : you, you, you
Night and day, you are the one
Only yo u beneath the mo on and under the sun
Whether near to m e, or far
It's no m atter, darling where you are
I t hink of you
Night and d ay,
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 hi de of me
There's a n oh such a hungry yearning b urning inside of me
And its torment won't be through
'Til y ou let me spend my life,
Making love to you
Day and nigh t
