Night and Day
Cecilia Dale Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You are the one
Only you 'neath
The moon
Or under the sun
Whether near
To me or far
It's no matter
Where you are
I think of you
Day and night
Night and day
Why is it so
That this
Longin' 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 it's torment
Won't be through
Till you let me
Spend my life
Makin' love to you
Day and night
Night and day
Night and day
You are the 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
Longin' for you
Ffollows
Wherever I go?
In the roarin'
Traffic's boom
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
Burning
Inside of me
And it's torment
Won't be through
Till you
Let me spend life
Makin' love to you
Day and night
Night and day
