Marty Robbins — Ribbon of Darkness lyrics

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-gatherin' o’er my head
That chill the day and hide the sun
That shroud the night when day is done
Ribbon of darkness over me Rain is falling in the meadow
Where once my love and I did lie
Now she is gone but not for gotten
My love goodbye
Ribbon of darkness over me Where once the world was young as spring
Flowers bloom and birds sing
Ribbon of darkness over me In this cold room lyin'
Don’t want to see no one but you
Lord I wish I could be dyin'
To forget you
Ribbon of darkness over me Since my true love walked out the door
Tears I never had before
Ribbon of darkness over me Ribbon of darkness over me
