Lord, tonight I need a friend
All I'm takin' is your time
Yesterday is dead and gone
Let the Devil take tomorrow
And tomorrow's out of sight
Lord, tonight I need a friend
Like the shadow on the wall
I don't care what's right or wrong
Come and lay down by my side
I don't care what's right or wrong
Help me make it through the night
I don't try to understand
Help me make it through the night
Till the early mornin' light
Layin' soft against my skin
I don't try to understand
Let the Devil take tomorrow
And tomorrow's out of sight
Yesterday is dead and gone
And it's bad to be alone
And it's bad to be alone
