Ribbon of Darkness lyrics

Ribbon o' darkness over me

Since my true love walked out the door

Tears I've never had before

Ribbon o' darkness over me

Clouds are gather' o'er my head

They chill the day and hide the sun

And shroud the night when day is done

Ribbon o' darkness over me

Rain is fallin' on the meadow

Where once my love and I did lie

Now he is gone from the meadow

My love, goodbye

Ribbon o' darkness over me

Where once the world was young as spring

Where flowers did bloom and birds did sing

Ribbon o' darkness over me

In this cold room lyin'

Don't wanna see no one but you

Oh, I wish I could be dyin'

To forget you

How I wish your heart could see

How mine just aches and breaks all day.

Come on back and take away

Ribbon o' darkness over me

Come on back and take away

Ribbon o' darkness over me
