Written by Kris Kristofferson, Help Me Make It Through the Night is one of the most honest songs ever written about loneliness and human vulnerability.
Released in 1970, it rejects moral judgment in favor of simple, immediate comfort - "I don't care what's right or wrong... I don't try to understand."
Kristofferson's plainspoken writing turned the song into a standard, later made famous by many artists, and often associated with his musical partnership with Rita Coolidge.
It's not a love song about promises - it's about surviving the night.
