Folk and Traditional Song Lyrics:
Help Me Make It Thru the Night

Help Me Make It Thru the Night

Help Me Make It Thru the Night
(Kris Kristofferson)

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
'Til the early morning light
All I'm asking is your time
Help me make it through the night

I don't care what's right or wrong
I won't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow
But 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

Hmmmm . . .
Hmmmm . . .
And it's so sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night

Oh, I don't want to be alone
Help me make it through the night
