Rain is falling on the meadow
Where once my love and I did lie
Now she's gone from the meadow
My love goodbye
Ribbon of darkness over me
Since my true love walked out the door
Fears I never had before
Ribbon of darkness over me
Clouds are gathering over my head
They chill the day and hide the sun
They cloud the night when day is done
Ribbon of darkness ovеr me
In this cold room I'm lying
Don't wanna see no one but you
But I wish that I was dying
Then I, I'd forgеt you
I wish your heart could see
How mine just aches and breaks all day
Please come back and take away
The ribbon of darkness over me
Rain is falling on the meadow
Where once my love and I did lie
Now she's gone from the meadow
My love goodbye
