Ribbon of Darkness:Gordon lightfoot.
Top of the charts in '66.
CHORUS:
Ribbon of darkness over me,
Since my true love walked out the door.
Tears I never had before.
Ribbon of darkness over me.
#1.
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.
BRIDGE:
Rain is falling on the meadow,
Where once my love and I did lie.
Now she is gone from the meadow,
My love goodbye.
#2.
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.
#3. (Chorus #2)
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.
CHORUS:
#4.
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.
CHORUS:
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
