Black is the color of my true love's hair Her lips are like some roses fair The sweetest smile and the softest hands I love the ground whereon she stands
I go to the Clyde for to mourn and weep But satisfied I never sleep I'll write to you in a few short lines I'll suffer death ten thousand times
Black is the color of my true love's hair Her lips are like some roses fair The sweetest smile and the softest hands I love the ground whereon she stands
INSTRUMENTAL
Black is the color of my true love's hair Her lips are like some roses fair The sweetest smile and the softest hands I love the ground whereon she stands
I know my love and well she knows I love the grass whereon she goes I wish the day that soon will come When she and I might be as one
Black is the color of my true love's hair Her lips are like some roses fair The sweetest smile and the softest hands I love the ground whereon she stands
