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
or 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
Until you let me spend my life
making love to you
Day and night, night and day
<Interlude>
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
Until you let me spend my life
making love to you
Day and night, night and day
