Lyrics

TAKE FIVE
(Paul Desmond, Jon Hendricks)

Won’t you stop and take a little time out
With me, just take five
Stop your busy day and take some time out
To see 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, not a play

Our eyes often meet
I feel tingles down to my feet
When you smile it’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 all right
Just take five, just take five
