This song was written by Cole Porter. He wrote it in 1932. Night and Day
has been recorded many times, notably by Billie Holiday, Frank Sinatra, Dionne Warwick, Ella Fitzgerald, Shirley Bassey, Ringo Starr, Doris Day and U2.
U2 recorded it in 1990 and it appeared on the Red Hot and Blue (released on 25 September, 1990) compilation album. The album sold over a million copies worldwide and was heralded as one of the first major AIDS benefits in the music business.
This video was shot on 12 October, 2010 in Budapest. I hope it's very similar to the original one.
Where the jungle shadows fall
Like the tick tick tick of the eye of the clock
You're standing up against the wall
Like the drip drip drip of the rain drops
When the sun shines through
So a voice within me
Keeps revealing you...you
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, baby, where you are
I think of you
Night and day
Day and night
Why is it so
That this longing for you follows wherever I go
In the roaring traffic gloom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you
Night and day
Night and day
Under the hide of me
Though such a hungry yearning
Burning inside of me
This torment won't be through
'til you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night
Night and day
Huuuh-huh
Night and day
Huh-huh-huh-huh-ah
do-do-ah-ah-ah
Huh-do-do-do-do
Ah-ah-ah
Guitar solo
Night and day
Under the hide of me
Oh, such a hungry yearning
Burning, burning inside of me
This torment won't be through
'til you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and ni-i-ight
Night and day
Night and day
Night and day
Night and day
Hu-u-u-huh
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Hááááááááááááááááááááá
Night, night, night and day
Night, night, night and day
Night and day
Night, niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight and daaay
