Take the ribbon from my 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 'Til 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 don't try to understand Let the devil have tomorrow Lord, tonight I need a friend. Yesterday is dead and gone And tomorrow's out of sight Lord, it's sad to be alone Help me make it through the night. --- Instrumental --- Lord, it's sad to be alone Help me make it through the night I can't stand to be alone Help me make it through the night...
