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

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mercy, mercy me
Things aint what they used to be, no no
Where did all the blue skies go?
Poison is the wind that blows from the north and south and east
[Verse 2]
Mercy, mercy me
Things aint what they used to be, no no
Oil wasted on the ocean and upon our seas
Fish full of mercury
[Verse 3]
Mercy, mercy me
Things aint what they used to be, no no
Radiation under ground and in the sky
Animals and birds who live nearby are dying
[Verse 4]
Mercy, mercy me
Things aint what they used to be
What about this overcrowded land
How much more abuse from man can she stand? Marvin Gaye Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology) 1971](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/VgJIp-uDIwA/mqdefault.jpg)
