Rainy Night in Tokyo
[Verse 1]
Seventh of September
Remember when
We met at the shrine
Your kimono looked so fine
Temple dancers swaying
Flutes playing then
I was yours and you were mine

[Chorus]
Paul Desmond on the stereo
We sipped the sake very slow
Kissing in the candleglow
That rainy night in Tokyo
Tokyo!
Tokyo (Tokyo)
Tokyo (Tokyo)
Tokyo (Tokyo)

[Verse 2]
We both got so hungry on the bullet train
Lugging our luggage through the station
Finding a taxi in the pouring rain
We must have made quite a sight
In love on a rainy night
And due for a little celebration
[Verse 3]
Safe from stormy weather
Together we
Stayed inside our room
Just admiring the typhoon
Heard the cats arrive at
Nearly five but we
Were still making love in tune

[Chorus]
Paul Desmond on the stereo
We sipped the sake very slow
Kissing in the candleglow
That rainy night in Tokyo
Tokyo! (Tokyo)
Tokyo (Tokyo)
Tokyo (Tokyo)
Tokyo (Tokyo)
