Stop Stop Stop

See the girl with cymbals on her fingers entering through the door Rubies glistening from her navel, shimmering around the floor Bells on feet go ting-a-ling-a-ling, going through my head Sweat is falling just like a tear drop running from her head Now she's dancing, going through the movements, swaying to and fro Body moving, bringing back a memory, thoughts of long ago Blood is rushing, temperature is rising, sweating from my brow Like a snake, her body fascinates me, I can't look away now Stop, stop, stop all the dancing, give me time to breathe Stop, stop, stop all the dancing or I'll have to leave Now she's moving all around the table's luring all in sight But I know that she cannot see me hidden by the light Closer, closer, she is getting nearer; soon she'll be in reach As I enter into her spotlight, she stands lost for speech Stop, stop, stop all the dancing, give me time to breathe Stop, stop, stop all the dancing or I'll have to leave Stop, stop, stop all the dancing, give me time to breathe Stop, stop, stop all the dancing or I'll have to leave Now I hold her, people are staring, don't know what to think And we struggle, knocking over tables, spilling all the drinks Can't they understand that I want her? Happens every week Heavy hand upon my collar throws me in the street Stop, stop, stop all the dancing, give me time to breathe Stop, stop, stop all the dancing or I'll have to leave --- Stop Stop Stop - The Hollies
