Nol Coward — Tokay

(Verse) [OFFICERS] Tokay! [CAPTAIN LUTTE] When we're thoroughly wined and dined And the barracks are left behind We come down to the town to find Some relief from the daily grind Love is kind Love is blind [OFFICERS] Tokay! [CAPTAIN LUTTE] When the thoughts of a man incline To the grapes of a sunlit vine On the banks of the golden Rhine Slowly ripening pure and fine Sweet divine Lovers' wine Lift your voices till the rafters ring Fill your glasses to the brim and sing (Chorus) {CAPTAIN LUTTE] Tokay! The golden sunshine of a summer day Tokay! Will bear the burden of your cares away Here's to the love in you The hate in you Desire in you [OFFICERS] Wine of the sun that will waft you along Lifting you high on the wings of a song [CAPTAIN LUTTE] Dreams in you The flame in you The fire in you Tokay! Tokay! [OFFICERS] So while forgetfulness we borrow Never minding what tomorrow Has to say [CAPTAIN LUTTE] Tokay! [ALL] The only call we all obey Tokay! Tokay! Tokay!
