Take the ribbon from your hair
Shake it loose and let it fall
Laying soft upon my skin
Like the shadows on the wall
Come on, lay down by my side
'Til the early morning light
All I'm taking is your time
Just help me make it through the night
I don't care what's right or wrong
I don't try to understand
Just let the devil take tomorrow
Lord tonight I need a friend (I need a friend)
Well yesterday is dead and gone, yes, it is
And tomorrow's out of sight
It's so sad to be alone (think about it now)
Help me make it through the night
I don't care what's right or wrong
Honey, I don't try to understand
I'll just let the devil take tomorrow
Lord tonight I need a friend (I need a friend)
Yesterday is dead and gone (it's all over with)
And tomorrow's out of sight
It's so sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night
