Take the ribbon from my hair
Shake it loose and let it fall

Layin' soft against your skin
Like the shadow on the wall


Come and lay down by my side
Till the early mornin' light

All I'm takin' is your time


I don't care what's right or wrong
I won'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 want to be alone
Help me make it through the night
