Night is draggin' her feet I wait alone in the heat I know know that you have your way 'Til you have to go home. "No" 's a word I can't say. But it gets me nowhere to tell you "no" It gets me nowhere to make you go Will a little more love make you Star 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 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"
