Ribbon

I tie a ribbon through your hand

So, every maiden in the land

Knows we are woman

And we are man

I keep you captive in my home

I tie a scarf around your dome

So, every waif from town to town

Knows you are tied down, down, down

I send farewells to your family

In a beautiful melodic homily

So, every person tied to my love

Never comes to save my dove

Ribbon
