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-atherin' o'er my head
 That kill the day and hide the sun
 That shroud the night when day is done
 Ribbon of darkness over me
 Rain is falling on the meadow
 Where once my love and I did lie
 Now she is gone from the meadow
 My love goodbye
 Ribbon of darkness over me
 Where once the world was young as spring
 Where flowers did bloom and birds did sing
 Ribbon of darkness over me
 ♪
 Here in this cold room lyin'
 Don't want to see no one but you
 Lord I wish I could be dyin'
 To forget you
 Oh how I wish your heart could see
 How mine just aches and breaks all day
 Come on home and take away
 This ribbon of darkness over me
