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
|
Paul Desmond on the stereo
|
We sipped the sake very slow
|
Kissing in the candleglow
|
That rainy night in Tokyo
|
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
|
Safe from stormy weather
|
Together we
|
Stayed inside our room
|
Just admiring the typhoon
|
Heard the cats arrive
|
Nearly five but we
|
Were still making love in tune
|
