[Verse 1]
Take the ribbon from your hair
Shake it loose and let it fall
Lay it soft against your skin
Like the shadows on the wall
Come and lay down by my side
Till the early morning light
All I'm takin’ is your time
Help me make it through the night

[Chorus]
I don't care what's right or wrong
I won’t try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow
For, tonight I need a friend
Yesterday is dead and gone
And tomorrow's out of sight
And it's so sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night

[Outro]
Do do do do do do do
Lord it's so sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night
Help me make it through the night
Come on make it through the night
