Ribbons of blue
Remind me of you
Ribbons of red
Are the way that my heart bled
Memories so clear
Are still ringing in my ears
So i wanna send to you
My ol' ribbons of blue
Ribbons of blue
Now remind me of you
Ribbons of red
Are the way that my heart bled
Memories so clear
Are still ringing in my ear
So i wanna send to you
My ol' ribbons of blue
Got me a ribbon
Bright blue ribbon for my hair
Made me a promise
Now i know he didn't care
Touched by his first kiss
Fooled by his first song
The way he led me along
With my ribbons undone
Ribbons of blue
Now remind me of you
Ribbons of red
Are the way that my heart bled
Memories so clear
Are still ringing in my ear
(at this point, the song is over on the lp/cd oceans of fantasy...)
So i wanna send to you
My ol' ribbons of blue
Sad for me baby
So bad for me baby oohh
Hard on me baby
So far from me baby oohh
Ribbons of blue
Now remind me of you
Ribbons of red
Are the way that my heart bled
Memories so clear
Are still ringing in my ears
So i wanna send to you
My ol' ribbons of blue

Blue ribbon dreamer
Came with words that sounded right
Took me dancing
Held me close and
Held me tight

Ribbons Of Blue
Released by the Nigerian-French disco group Boney M on their 1978 album Magic Of, Ribbons Of Blue stands as a standout track within their extensive catalogue of disco and pop music. The song exemplifies the group's signature sound, blending upbeat rhythms with lush vocal harmonies that became hallmarks of their international success. While often overshadowed by hits like Rivers Of Babylon, Ribbons Of Blue demonstrates the band's versatility and their ability to craft memorable melodies that transcended cultural boundaries. As part of the late 1970s disco era, the recording captures the vibrant energy and polished production style that defined Boney M's contribution to global pop music during that period.
