Night And Day - Jackie DeShannon

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, ching-ching-ching

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, ching-ching-ching

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

Day and night 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

Day and night 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

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 beat, beat, beat of the tom-tom

When the jungle shadows fall
