Lyrics

[00:55.52] Black is the colour of my true love's hair
[01:03.06] Her lips are like some roses fair
[01:10.24] She has the sweetest smile
[01:14.78] and the gentlest hands
[01:19.95] And i love the ground where on she stands
[01:33.45] I go to the Clyde where i mourn and weep
[01:41.60] For satisfied i never can be
[01:49.05] I write her a letter, just a few short lines
[01:56.27] and suffer death a thousand times
[02:03.42]
[02:13.23] Black is the colour of my true love's hair
[02:18.44] Her lips are like some roses fair
[02:26.06] She has the sweetest smile
[02:30.24] and the gentlest hands
[02:33.39] And i love the ground where on she stands
[02:40.61]
[02:50.85] I love my love and well she knows
[02:56.12] I love the ground where on she goes
[03:03.39] I wish the day it soon would come
[03:10.89] when she and i could be as one
