Take the ribbon from your hair,
shake it loose and let it fall,
laying soft against your skin
like the shadows 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 is out of the sight
and it's sad to be alone,
help me make it through the night.

help me make it through the night.
 
I don’t want to be alone,
help me make it through the night.
