[Verse 1]
Ribbon of darkness over me
Since my true love walked out the door
Tears I never had before
Ribbon of darkness over me
[Verse 2]
Clouds a-gatherin' o'er my head
They chill the day and hide the sun
They shroud the night when day is done
Ribbon of darkness over me
[Bridge]
Rain is falling on the meadow
Where once my love and I did lie
Now she's gone but not forgotten
My love, goodbye
[Verse 3]
Ribbon of darkness over me
Where once the world was young as spring
Flowers bloom and birds sing
This ribbon of darkness over me
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
In this cold room lyin'
Don't want to see no one but you
Lord, I wish I could be dyin'
To forget you
[Verse 1]
Ribbon of darkness over me
Since my true love walked out the door
Tears I never had before
Ribbon of darkness over me
This ribbon of darkness over me
