|
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 |
|
'Til you let me spend my life making love to you |
|
Day and night, night and day |
