Black Is the Colour Songtext
Black is the colour of my true love′s hair
Her lips are like some roses fair
She's the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands
And I love the ground whereon she stands
I love my love and well she knows
I love the ground whereon she goes
I wish the day it soon would come
When she and I could be as one
Black is the colour of my true love′s hair
Her lips are like some roses fair
She's the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands
I love the ground whereon she stands
I go to the Clyde and mourn an' weep
For satisfied I never can be
I′ll write her a letter, just a few short lines
And suffer death a thousand times
For black is the colour of my true love′s hair
Her lips are like some roses fair
She's the sweetest smile and gentlest hands
I love the ground whereon she stands
Her lips are like some roses fair
She's the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands
And I love the ground whereon she stands
I love my love and well she knows
I love the ground whereon she goes
I wish the day it soon would come
When she and I could be as one
Black is the colour of my true love′s hair
Her lips are like some roses fair
She's the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands
I love the ground whereon she stands
I go to the Clyde and mourn an' weep
For satisfied I never can be
I′ll write her a letter, just a few short lines
And suffer death a thousand times
For black is the colour of my true love′s hair
Her lips are like some roses fair
She's the sweetest smile and gentlest hands
I love the ground whereon she stands
