Night is draggin' her feet I wait alone in the heat I know, know that you'll have your way 'Til you have to go home No's a word I can't say 'Cause it gets me nowhere to tell you, "No" And it gets me nowhere to make you go Will a little more love make you stop depending? Will a little more love bring a happy ending? Will a little more love make it right? Will a little more love make it right? Where, where did my innocence go? How, how was a young girl to know? I'm trapped, trapped in the spell of your eyes In the warmth of your arms In the web of your lies But it gets me nowhere to tell you, "No" And it gets me nowhere to make you go Will a little more love make you stop depending? Will a little more love bring a happy ending? Will a little more love make it right? Will a little more love make it right? Gets me nowhere to tell you, "No" And it gets me nowhere to make you go Will a little more love make you stop depending? Will a little more love bring a happy ending? Will a little more love make it right? Will a little more love make it right? Gets me nowhere to tell you, "No" And it gets me nowhere to make you go Will a little more love make you stop depending? Will a little more love bring a happy ending? Will a little more love make it right? Will a little more love make it right? Gets me nowhere to tell you, "No"
