Gladys Knight Help Me Make It Through The Night Lyrics

I'm imagining a lot 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 lonely tonight
I imagine most of us are in that situation, at some time or another
I know I have
Recently I heard the most beautiful song with a dynamic lyric
That really expresses the feeling of loneliness
It means a lot 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
I wont 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
