take five
Singer:al jarreau
just stop and take a little time out with me. oh just take five
just take five. stop your busy day and take the time out to see
though i'm going out of my way
just so i can pass by each day
not a single word do we say
i'm out of time. still i know our eyes often meet
i feel tingles down to my feet
that's much too discreet. sends me on my way. now wouldn't it be better not to be so polite
when you could offer a light?
just start a little conversation now
when you're taking five. five!
won't ya take a little time out with me
baby take five. stop your busy day and take the time to see
though i'm going out of my way
just so i can pass by each day
not a single word do we say
still i know our eyes often meet
i feel tingles down to my feet
that's much too discreet. sends me on my way. wouldn't it be better not to be so polite
don't you know that you could offer me a light?
start a little conversation now
when you're taking five. won't ya take a little time out with me
stop your busy day and take the time to see that i'm alive
though i'm going out of my way
so i can pass by each day
not a single word do we say
still i know our eyes often meet
i feel tingles down to my feet
that's much too discreet. sends me on my way. baby
just don't say hello and do not stare
you could offer your hand
hugging and a-chugging it could be so grand
