Stop Stop Stop:The Hollies.
#2 UK and #7 USA in 1966.
#1.
D
See the girl with cymbals on her fingers,
entering through the door.
Ruby glistening from her navel,
shimmering around the floor.
Bells on feet go ting—a ling—a linging,
going through my head.
Sweat is falling just like tear drops,
running from her head.
#2.
D
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.
CHORUS:
G
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
A
give me time to breathe.
G
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
A
Or I'll have to leave.
#3.
D
Now she's moving all around the tables
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 the spotlight
she stands lost for speech.
CHORUS:
G
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
A
give me time to breathe.
G
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
A
Or I'll have to leave.
CHORUS:
G
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
A
give me time to breathe.
G
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
A
Or I'll have to leave.
#4.
D
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.
CHORUS:
G
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
A
give me time to breathe.
G
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
A D
Or I'll have to le.......ave.(Fade.)
