"Five Minutes More" Lyrics

(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
