Take the ribbon from the 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, 'til the early morning light
All I'm takin' 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
And it's sad to be alone, help me make it through the night
I don't wanna be alone, help me make it through the night
