Take the ribbon from my hairShake it loose and let it fallLay it soft against your skinLike the shadow on the wall
Come and lie down by my side‘Til the early morning lightAll I’m takin’ is your timeHelp me make it through the night
I don’t care what’s right or wrongAnd I won’t try to understandLet the devil take tomorrowLord, tonight I need a friend
Yesterday is dead and goneAnd tomorrow’s out of sightAnd it’s sad to be aloneHelp me make it through the night
I don’t care what’s right or wrongAnd I won’t try to understandLet the devil take tomorrow‘Cause Lord, tonight I need a friend
Yesterday is dead and goneAnd tomorrow’s out of sightAnd it’s sad to be aloneHelp me make it through the night
I don’t want to be aloneHelp me make it through the night
Such a poignant, heartfelt plea for connection and comfort.
Beautiful poem! Enjoy the moment 😁
