Take the ribbon from my hair
Shake it loose and let it fall
Laying soft against your skin
Like the shadows on the walls,
come and lay down by my side
Till early morning light,
all I'm taking is your time
I don't care what's right or wrong,
I don't try to understand
Let the devil have tomorrow,
Yesterday's dead and gone,
Lord, it's sad to be alone,
help me make it through tonight
Lord, it's sad to be alone
If I make it through tonight
I can't stand to be alone,
help me make it through tonight.
