"Night and Day" è un brano scritto dal compositore
statunitense Cole Porter nel 1932 per la commedia
musicale "Gay Divorce". Quando il musical fu convertito
nel film "Cerco il mio amore" (1934), con Fred Astaire
e Ginger Rogers, il brano fu promosso come un punto di
forza della pellicola. Negli anni la canzone è
diventata uno dei più famosi standard jazz,
interpretata, tra gli altri, da Frank Sinatra e da Ella
Fitzgerald.
LYRICS 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
Day and night, night and day, 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
Day and night, 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
