Original lyrics
ENTake the ribbon from your 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 taking is your time
Help me make it through the night
I don't care what's right or wrong
And 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
It's so sad to be alone.
Help me make it through the night.
