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 a-gatherin' o'er my head

That chill the day and hide the sun

That shroud the night when day is done

Ribbon of darkness over me

Rain is falling in the meadow

Where once my love and I did lie

Now she is gone but not for gotten

My love goodbye

Ribbon of darkness over me

Where once the world was young as spring

Flowers bloom and birds sing

Ribbon of darkness over me

In this cold room lyin'

Don't want to see no one but you

Lord I wish I could be dyin'

To forget you

Ribbon of darkness over me

Since my true love walked out the door

Tears I never had before

Ribbon of darkness over me

Ribbon of darkness over me
