Take Five

"Take Five" is a jazz piece written by Paul Desmond and performed by The Dave Brubeck Quartet on their 1959 album Time Out. Recorded at Columbia's 30th Street Studios in New York City on June 25, July 1, and August 18, 1959, this piece became one of the group's best-known records. It is famous for its distinctive catchy saxophone melody; imaginative, jolting drum solo; and use of the unusual quintuple (5/4) time, from which its name is derived. The song was first played to a live audience by The Dave Brubeck Quartet at the Village Gate nightclub in New York City in 1959. more »

Tilky:

There's something special about you,
(Could it be a spell you put on me, that got me loving you)
In the middle of the night babe, I wake up to,
To a cold sweat, yeah
'Cause i'm thinking about you

TJ-(All):

It seems to me like it's make believe
A dream girl like you, wanting to (be with me)
So I pinch myself, to see if you'd fade away
Never went away, so I said to myself

Chorus-All:

If I would've known then what I know now
I would've saved my love for you, only you (only you)
And since I didn't know then what I know now
There's one thing that I know,
I'm glad I saved the best for last

Stevie:

I always think about me and you
(Shed a tear for every year, that me and you should've been)
I'm gonna always tell you how I feel,
'Cause momma told me never let, your silence speak for you

Tilky:

It seems to me, like it's make believe
A dream girl like you, wanting to be with me
So I pinch myself, to see if you'd fade away
Never went away, so I said to myself

Chorus-All:

If I would've known then what I know now
I would've saved my love for you, only you (only you)
And since I didn't know then what I know now
There's one thing that I know,
I'm glad I saved the best for last

Tilky:

All the pain, i've experienced
Bad relationships, could've been avoided
If I only knew, you were up there
I would've saved all my love for you,

Tilky & TJ:

If I only knew...

Chorus-All:

If I would've known then what I know now
I would've saved my love for you, only you (only you)
And since I didn't know then what I know now
There's one thing that I know,
I'm glad I saved the best for last

If I would've known then what I know now
I would've saved my love for you, only you (only you)
And since I didn't know then what I know now
There's one thing that I know,
I'm glad I saved the best for last...
