Oh, it's such a butterfly feelin' to have you for a friend
Oh, but somehow I get the feeling that I'll be lonely again

And in a little while I'll be gone, yeah
And in a little while I'll be gone
It only takes a little while to get along
So come on baby, give a smile and come on
Ah yeah!

Ba ba ba...

And when The Zombies started singin' 'bout the season
You know your daddy got up to dance
And it wasn't for any other reason than the feelin' in his corduroy pants
And in a little while daddy's gone
Yeah, and in a little while, there goes mom
It only takes a little while to get along
So come on baby, give a smile and come on
Ah yeah!

Ba ba ba...

And in a little while I'll be gone
Yeah, and in a little while I'll be gone
It only takes a little while to get along
So come on baby, give a smile and come on
Ah yeah!

It only takes a little while
Yeah, it takes a little while
It only takes a little while
Yeah, it takes a little while
