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
Night and dayDay and night
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 dayNight 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 trough
Till you let me spent my life making love to you
Night and day
Day and night(short bridge)
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 trough
Till you let spent my life making love to you
Day and night
Night and day
