The Shirelles
Make The Night Just A Little Longer
[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
So Lord, I beg 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 maybe hold him tight (Just a little longer)
You made the world the way you thought it should be
But won't you make the night a little longer for me?

[Verse 2]
My nights are warm
'Cause when he comes and holds me
Everything just feels so fine
But Lord, you know
I hate to see the sunrise
Take away that man of mine

[Chorus]
So Lord, I beg 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)
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
So Lord, I beg 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)
Maybe look into his eyes (just a little longer)
Please make the night (Just a little longer)
Make the night (Just a little longer)
