Help Me Make It Through The Night Lyrics - Elvis Presley

(Words & music by Kris Kristofferson) 

Take the ribbon from your hair 

Shake it loose, let it fall 

Lay it soft against my skin 

Like the shadow 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 care what's right or wrong 

I won't try to understand 

Let the devil take tomorrow 

'Cause tonight I need a friend 

Yesterday is dead and gone 

And tomorrow's out of sight 

And it's sad to be alone 

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 

'Cause tonight I need a friend

Yesterday is dead and gone 

And tomorrow's out of sight 

And it's sad to be alone 

Help me make it through the night 

I don't want to be alone 

Help me make it through the night
