Night And Day

Night And Day

music and lyric by 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 sum'r show'r 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'e 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 it's torment won't be through till you let me spend my life making love to you

Day and night, night and day...
