Take the ribbon from my 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 
Till 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
