Artist/Band: Jan Howard
Lyrics for Song: Ribbon of Darkness
Lyrics for Album: Jan Howard [Decca] [1969]



(Gordon Lightfoot)



Ribbon of darkness over me since my true love walked out the door

Tears I never had before ribbon of darkness over me

Clouds are gathering 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 he's gone from the meadow my love goodbye

Ribbon of darkness over me where once the world was young as spring

Where clouds did bloom and birds would sing ribbon of darkness over me.



--- Instrumental ---



In this cold room lying don't want to see no one but you

Oh Lord, I wish I could be dying to forget you

How I wish your heart could see my mind just takes the breaks oll day

Come on back and take away the ribbon of darkness over me...
