Default Brake Lights stay on

An unusual problem that I'm hoping someone has a solution for:

When I apply the brakes on my '69 GTO the brake lights illuminate properly. However when I release the brake pedal and begin to accelerate the brake lights often stay illuminated for several seconds (sometimes as long as 5 sec).

I noticed one night that the brake pedal seems to be returning to its normal height very slowly after I release it. I can actually slip the toe of my left foot under the pedal and "lift" it back into its normal position (I don't have to do this every time I brake, however).

Any idea why this is occurring? Other than this issue the brakes seem to be adjusted fine and operating properly.

TIA!
