Night and Day Songtext
von Anita O’Day

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, you, you

Night and day, you are the one, only you
Beneath the moon, under the sun
Whether near to me or far
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?
Roaring traffic boom, silence of my lonely room
I think of you night and day

Day and night, under the hide of me
There′s an, oh, such a hungry yearnin' burnin′ inside of me
And its torment won't be through
You let me spend my life making love to you, day and night

Ah-bu-di-tri, ay-bu-di-tra, ah-bu-di-tre
Ba-ba-diddle-niddle-di-da

Ah-bu-di-tri, ay-bu-di-tra, ah-bu-di-tre
Ba-ba-barando

Day and night, under the hide of me
A hungry yearnin' burnin′ inside of me
Torment won′t be through
You let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night, night and day

And day and night, and night and day
And day and night, and night and day
