Take the ribbon from my hair shake it loose and let it 
fall 
Laying 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 know what's right or wrong though I try to 
understand 
I got no promise of tomorrow and 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. 
Mhmm, mhmm, mhmm, mhmm 
I don't want to be alone help me make it through the 
night 
Please don't let me stay alone help me make it through 
the night.
