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

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

Extra verse as recorded by
the Tony Burgos Orchestra:


"Dear this evening seemed to go so awfully fast
We had so much fun and now we're home at last
I looked forward to a kiss or two at the garden gate
But she gave me just one peck and insisted it was late"

Extra verse as recorded by Robin Luke:


"Dear this evening seemed to go so awfully fast
We had so much fun and now we're home at last
I looked forward to a kiss or two at the door
But she gave me just one kiss..........."

Alternate lyrics as recorded by
1950's New Zealand singer Tony Devlin:


"Oh, Baby, give me five minutes more
Baby, only five minutes more
I want five minutes more of your charms

Ah, well-ah one minute, Honey, that's not enough
Two minutes, I always feel so tough
Three minutes, oh Baby, I want ten
Four minutes, come on, kiss me again
Oh, well I don't want one, two, three, four....."
