Val Doonican Scarlet Ribbons
I peeked in to say good-night
And there I saw my child in prayer
"And for me, some scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for my hair"
All the stores were closed and shuttered
All the streets were dark and bare.
In our town, no scarlet ribbons
Not one ribbon for her hair.
Through the night my heart was aching
But before the dawn was breaking.
I peeked in and on her bed
In gay profusion lying there.
Lovely ribbons, scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for her hair.
If I live to be a hundred
I will never know from where.
Came those lovely scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for her hair.
Came those lovely scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for her hair.
