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 Day and night Night and day Why is it so That this longing for you follows wherever I go? In the roarin' traffic's boom In the silence of my lonely room I think of you Day and night Night and day Under the hide of me There's an oh such a hungry yearnin' burnin' inside of me And its torment won't be through 'Til you let me spend my life making love to you Day and night Night and day Night and day You are one Only you 'neath the moon or under the sun Whether near to me or far It's no matter, baby, where you are I think of you Day and night Night and day Why is it so That this longing for you follows wherever I go In the roarin' traffic's boom In the silence of my lonely room I think of you Day and night Night and day Under the height of me There's an oh such a hungry yearnin' burnin' inside of me And its torment won't be through 'Til you let me spend life making love to you Day and night Night and day
