Lightfoot Gordon Ribbon Of Darkness Lyrics

Ribbon Of Darkness Lyrics

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
