Ribbon of darkness over me since my true love walked out the door
Tears I've never had before ribbon of darkness over me

Clouds are gatherin' o'er my head they chill the day and hide the sun
And 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 lovе goodbye

Ribbon of darkness over mе where once the world was young as spring
Where clouds did bloom and birds did sing ribbon of darkness over me

In this cold room lying don't wanna see no one but you
Lord I wish I could be dying to forget you

Now I wish your heart could see my mind just takes the breaks all day
Come on home and take away ribbon of darkness over me
Come on home and take away ribbon of darkness over me
