Make the Night a Little Longer

Make The Night A Little Longer - The Shirelles

My days are years

'Cause I don't see my baby

Till the stars are in the sky

And every night

When we can be together

Time just seems to hurry by

So Lord, I'm begging

You to make the night

(Just a little longer)

Make the night

(Just a little longer)

So I can kiss him

(Just a little longer)

And hold him tight

(Just a little longer)

You made the world the way

You thought it should be

So won't you make the night

A little longer for me?

My nights are warm

'Cause when he hugs and holds me

Everything just feels so fine

But Lord, you know

I hate to see the sunlight

Takes away that man of mine

So Lord, I'm beggin'

You to make the night

(Just a little longer)

Make the night

(Just a little longer)

So I can kiss him

(Just a little longer)

And hold him tight

(Just a little longer)

(Just a little longer, just a little longer)

So Lord, I'm beggin'

You to make the night

(Just a little longer)

Make the night

(Just a little longer)

So I can kiss him

(Just a little longer)

And hold him tight

(Just a little longer)

Then embrace his arms

(Just a little longer)

Capture all of a nine

(Just a little longer)

make the night

(just a little longer)
