Ribbon of Darkness
Ribbon of darkness over me
Since my true love walked out the door
Tears I never had before
Ribbon of darkness over me
Clouds are gathering o'er my head
That chill the day and hide the sun
They shroud the night when day is done
Ribbon of darkness over me
Rain is fallin' on the meadow
Where once my love and I did lie
Now she's gone from the meadow
My love goodbye
Ribbon of darkness over me
Where once the world was young as spring
Where clouds are blooming, birds would sing
Ribbon of darkness over me
In this cold room lying
Don't want to see no one but you
Lord, I wish I could be dying to forget you
How I wish your heart could see
How mine just takes breaks of day
Come on back and take away
Ribbon of darkness over me
Come on back and take away
Ribbon of darkness over me
Since my true love walked out the door
Tears I never had before
Ribbon of darkness over me
Clouds are gathering o'er my head
That chill the day and hide the sun
They shroud the night when day is done
Ribbon of darkness over me
Rain is fallin' on the meadow
Where once my love and I did lie
Now she's gone from the meadow
My love goodbye
Ribbon of darkness over me
Where once the world was young as spring
Where clouds are blooming, birds would sing
Ribbon of darkness over me
In this cold room lying
Don't want to see no one but you
Lord, I wish I could be dying to forget you
How I wish your heart could see
How mine just takes breaks of day
Come on back and take away
Ribbon of darkness over me
Come on back and take away
Ribbon of darkness over me
