Take the ribbon from your hair
shake it loose and let it fall
layin` soft upon my 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 who`s right or wrong
I don`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.
