Take the ribbon from your hair

Shake it loose and let it fall

Lay it soft against my 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

I don't care what'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

Take the ribbon from your hair

Shake it loose and let it fall

Lay it soft against my 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

I don't care what'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

I don't care what'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

Lord, it's bad to be alone

Help me make it through the night

Lord, it's bad to be alone

Help me make it through the night

Lord, it's bad to be alone

Help me make it through the night
