Take the ribbon from your hair, shake it loose and let it fall Lay it soft against you skin, like the shadows on the wall Come and lay down by my side till the early mornin' light All I'm takin' is your time, help me make it through the night I don't care what's right or wrong and I won't try to understand Let the devil take tomorrow, for tonight I need a friend Yesterday is dead and gone and tomorrow's out of sight It's so sad to be alone, help me make it through the night It's so sad to be alone, help me make it through the night Lead me through the night Take me through the night Help me through the night
