Текст песни Take Five - Single Version - Carmen McRae , The Dave Brubeck Quartet

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,
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 discrete,
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.

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 discrete,
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
