Take Five

Dave Brubeck

Continues after the ad

Won't you stop and take a little time out with me
Just take five
Stop your busy day and take the time out
To see if I'm alive

Though I'm going out of my way
Just so I can pass by each day
Not a single word do we say
It's a pantomime and not a play

Still, I know our eyes often meet
I feel tingles down to my feet
When you smile, that's much too discreet
Sends me on my way

Wouldn't it be better
Not to be so polite
You could offer a light
Start a little conversation now

Continues after the ad

It's alright, just take five
Just take five
Though I'm going out of my way
Just so I can pass by each day

Not a single word do we say
It's a pantomime and not a play
Still, I know our eyes often meet
I feel tingles down to my feet

When you smile, that's much too discreet
Sends me on my way
Wouldn't it be better
Not to be so polite

You could offer a light
Start a little conversation now
It's alright, just take five
Just take five

Just take five
Just take five
Just take five
