Take the ribbon
From my 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 takin'
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
And it's sad
To be alone
Help me make it
Through the night
Hum hum hum hum
Hum hum hum
Hum hum hum hum
Hum hum hum hum
And it's sad
To be alone
Help me make it
Through the night
I don't want
To be alone
Help me make it
Through the night
