Help Me Make It through The Night

Take the ribbons from your hair, shake it loose and let it fall
Lay it soft against my 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 now, 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
I don't want to be alone, help me make it through the night

(Instrumental break)

Lord, it's sad to be alone, please help me make it through the night

No, I don't want to be alone, please help me make it through the night
