During rehearsals for Gay Divorce, Cole Porter (Kevin Kline) seduces his handsome lead actor (John Barrowman) by teaching him to sing this famous torch song. The scene later fades into a performance from the show, with the lead actor singing the song by himself.
(Verse)
[BOTH]
Like the beat beat beat of the tom-toms as 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."
(Chorus)
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 day
Day 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
[JACK]
Night and day
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
Till you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night, night and day
Night and Day was written by Cole Porter.
John Barrowman released Night and Day on Tue Jun 15 2004.
