MAKE THE NIGHT JUST A LITTLE LONGER

The Shirelles



My days are years

'Cause I don't see my baby till the stars are in the sky

& every night

When we can be together, time just seems to hurry by



CHORUS:

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)

& 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 & holds me, everything just feels so fine

But Lord, you know

I hate to see the sunlight, takes away that man of mine



(chorus)

(Just a little longer, just a little longer)



(instrumental)



(chorus)

Then embrace his arms (just a little longer)

& all of his charms (just a little longer)

...& fade
