take the ribbon from your hair

shake it loose let it fall

lay it soft against my skin

like the shadow 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 won't try to understand

let the devil take tomorrow

cause 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

i don't care what's right or wrong

i won't try to understand

let the devil take tomorrow

cause 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

i don't want to be alone

help me make it through the night
