Help Me Make It Through The Night

I'm imagining alot of happy people

And most of you are with someone you love

Well you are the lucky ones

All over the world there are lots of people who are alone tonight

I imagine most of us have been in that situation

At one time or another

I know I have

Recently I heard a most beautiful song with a dynamic lyric

That really expresses this feeling of loneliness

It means alot to me personally

And i'd like to share it with you

I think you'll see what i mean

Take the ribbon from my hair

Shake it loose and let it fall

Layin' 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 taking 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

For tonight I need a friend

Yesterday is dead and gone

And tomorrow's out of sight

And it's so sad to be alone

Help me make it through the night

Mmm

Lord it's so sad to be alone

Help me make it through the night (oo-hoo)

Lead me through the night(oo-hoo)

Come on and take me through the night(oo-hoo)

The night
