The Colour of Amber Songtext
Oh, the colour of amber is my true love′s hair
And his two blue eyes enticed me
And his ruby lips, so soft and so fine
Many's the time they′ve been pressed to mine
Oh, I will go fishing to yonder's brook
Where I'll catch my love with a line and a hook
And if he loves me like I love him
No man on earth shall part us two
Oh, I wish, oh, I wish, but it′s all in vain
Oh, I wish I was a maiden again
But a maiden again I never shall be
′Til apples grow on a orange tree
Oh, the colour of amber is my true love's hair
And his two blue eyes enticed me
And his ruby lips, so soft and so fine
Many′s the time they've been pressed to mine
And his two blue eyes enticed me
And his ruby lips, so soft and so fine
Many's the time they′ve been pressed to mine
Oh, I will go fishing to yonder's brook
Where I'll catch my love with a line and a hook
And if he loves me like I love him
No man on earth shall part us two
Oh, I wish, oh, I wish, but it′s all in vain
Oh, I wish I was a maiden again
But a maiden again I never shall be
′Til apples grow on a orange tree
Oh, the colour of amber is my true love's hair
And his two blue eyes enticed me
And his ruby lips, so soft and so fine
Many′s the time they've been pressed to mine
