Take the ribbons from your hair 
Shake it loose and let it fall 
Laying soft upon 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 who's right or wrong 
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 
And it's sad to be alone 
Help me make it through the night.

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. 
It's so sad to be alone 
Help me make it through the night...
