    A song written by Joseph Lemmon with Samuel McHaclameny taking lead vocal. Joseph was a big fan of the American pop group, The Byrds, and it is evident in this song from 1966. It went both ways though, with Jim McGuinn having said one of the inspirations for the name the Byrds was actually because they loved the Dodos so much.
    A very distinctive bassline in this one, and people always comment on how they love when Samuel whispers "I Love You". A great pop song, for sure!
    Lyrics:
    [Verse 1]
    Well ya know it's Time to wake
    like so many days
    get outside
    and feel the rays
    of the sunshine
    Well I have to Go to work
    I count down the time
    now we're done
    time to see you
    feeling divine
    [Pre-chorus 1]
    Well there are
    at least A few paths
    like the clouds high above
    that will lead me
    Straight to you
    [Chorus]
    And look at me
    I got
    Five ways till love
    Don't you know
    That in my mind
    I can conceive of
    Five ways till love
    I love you
    OOOh!
    [Verse 2]
    Well ya know my heart is set
    let me count the ways
    clear my head
    and feel the rays
    of the sunshine
    Well I haven't got a clue
    how to spend my time
    on the run
    time to see you
    feeling divine
    [pre-chorus 2]
    Well there are
    at least A few choices
    like birds so high above
    that will lead me
    straight to you
    [Chorus]
    And look at me
    I got
    Five ways till love
    Don't you know
    That in my mind
    I can conceive of
    Five ways till love
    I love you
    OOOh!
