Take the ribbon from my hair
Shake it loose and let it fall
Layin` soft against your skin
Like the shadow on the wall
Come and lay down by ma side
Till the early mornin` light
All I`m takin` is your time
Help me make it through the night
I don`t care what`s right or wrong
`n` I won`t 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
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
