Take Five (Live at the Childe Harold)

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

That I'm alive, I'm alive

Oh, 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, I'm out of time

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

Now wouldn't it be better not to be so polite

When you could offer a light?

Just start a little conversation now, it's alright

When you're taking five

Won't ya take a little time out with me (ya pretty pretty)

Mama take five

Ya pretty thing take the time off to see girl

that 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, I'm out of time

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,

When you could offer a light?

Start a little conversation now, don’t you know it's alright

Alright it’ll only take five

Won't ya take a little time out with me, girl

Come take five

Stop your busy day and take the time to see child

that I'm alive

Oh, though I'm going out of my way

So I can pass by each day

Not a single word do we say

It's a pantomime, I'm out of time

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

Baby, just don't say hello and do not stare

You could offer

Offer your hand

Hugging and a-chugging it could be so grand

Oh take five

Just take five
