Black is the Colour |
Black is the colour of my true love’s hair |
His lips are like some roses fair |
He’s the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands |
And I love the ground whereon he stands |
I love my love and well he knows |
I love the ground where on he goes |
How I wish the time would soon come |
When he and I can be as one |
I go to the Clyde and mourn and weep |
for satisfied I’d never sleep |
I write him a letter, just a few short lines |
And I suffer death ten thousand times |
Black is the colour of my true love’s hair |
His lips are like some roses fair |
He’s the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands |
And I love the ground whereon he stands |
I love the ground whereon he stands |
I love, I love, I love the ground where on he stands |
