Lyrics Black Is The Colour Of My True Love's Hair - Jimmy Somerville

Black Is The Colour Of My True Love's Hair

Black is the colour of my true love’s hair
His face so soft and wondrous fair
The purest eyes and the strongest hands
I love the ground on where he stands
Black is the colour of my true love’s hair
I love my lover and well he knows
To be with him and where he goes
And if my love I no longer would see
I feel my heart would cease to beat
For black is the colour of my true love’s hair
Black is the colour of my true love’s hair
The love he gives I will declare
And how I long for the time when it comes
When he and I become undone
And black is the colour of my true love’s hair
