Take Five (From "Manhattan Murder Mystery")

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 aliveThough 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 playStill, 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 wayWouldn'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 fiveThough 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 playStill, 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 wayWouldn'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
