Hopeton Lewis - Help Me Make It Through The Night

Take the ribbon from your hair
Shake it loose and let it fall
Layin' soft on my skin
I like the shadows on the wall

Come and lay down beside me
Till the early morning light
All I'm takin' is your time
Help me make it through the night

I don't care who's right or wrong
I don't try to understand
Let it down till tomorrow
Lord, tonight I need a friend, ooh

Yesterday, believe me, is dead and gone
And tomorrow is already out of sight
You know it's sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night

(..)
Hmm, hmm-mmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm-mmm, hmm-mmm

Whoa, you know it's sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night
Come on, help me, help me make it
Help me, won't you help me make it
Make it through the night - oh baby

Such a cold lonesome night without you
Without your love
Your sweet loving arms to guide me
How can I make it, make it, through the night
Without you, baby, ooh yeah
Won't you help me, baby..
