Night and Day Lyrics

Night and day, you are the one
Only you beneath the moon, under the sun
Whether near to me or far
It's no matter darlin', where you are
I think of you night and day

Night and day, why's 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

Night and day, under the hide of me
There's an ooh, such a hungry yearning, burning inside of me
And this torment won't be through
Till you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and Night
Night and Day

This is only one of hundreds of songs Cole Porter composed. Every one rich in meaning and very simple. And if you listen closely, there is a very subtle wit to them that is charming. Yeah, they just don't write them like this anymore. That's one of the reasons why I'm turning to these songs more and more. Simplicity doesn't have to mean dull. Overcomplication is what is boring me.
