Darcy Farrow is a song written by American folk musicians Steve Gillette and Tom Campbell, and first recorded in 1965 by Ian & Sylvia on their album, "Early Morning Rain". Gillette released his first recording of it in 1967 on his eponymous album, Steve Gillette. Written in 1964, the song was inspired by a fall that happened to Gillette's little sister, Darcy, when she was 12. Campbell took a melody that Gillette had written and came up with a story about two young lovers and a tragic fall.
