Take Five (Remastered)-The Dave Brubeck Quartet/Joe Williams/Count Basie

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
