Take the ribbon from my hair
Shake it loose
And let it fall
Laying 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 taking is your time
Help me make it through the night

I don't care what's right or wrong
I don't try to understand
Let the devil have tomorrow
Lord, tonight I need a friend

Yesterday is dead and gone
And tomorrow's out of sight
Lord, it's sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night

Lord, it's sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night
I can't stand to be alone
Help me make it through the night
