Five Minutes More

(Jule Styne/Sammy Cahn)



Dear this evening seemed to go so awfully fast

We had so much fun & now you're home at last

I looked forward to a kiss or two at the garden gate

But you gave me just one peck & insisted that it was late



Give me five minutes more,

Only five minutes more

Let me stay, let me stay in your arms



Here am I, begging for

Only five minutes more

Only five minutes more

Of your charms



All week long I dreamed

About our Saturday date

Don't you know that Sunday

Morning you can sleep late

Give me five minutes more

Only five minutes more



Let me stay, let me stay in your arms



All week long I dreamed

About our Saturday date

Don't you know that Sunday

Morning you can sleep late

Give me five minutes more

Only five minutes more



Let me stay, let me stay in your arms

aww c'mon
