Take the ribbon from your hair

Shake it loose and let it fall

Layin' here against your skin

Like a shadow on the wall

Come here and lay down beside me

Till the early mornin' light

All I'm askin' is your time

Would you help me make it through the night

I don't care what's right or wrong

I won't even try to understand

Let the devil take tomorrow

Lord, tonight I need a friend

Yesterday is dead and gone

And tomorrow's out of sight

And it's sad to be alone

Help me make it through the night

Yesterday is dead and gone

And tomorrow's out of sight

And it's sad to be alone

Help me make it through the night

I don't want to be alone

Help me make it through the night
