Lyrics

[00:02.460]
[00:07.460]
[00:27.840] Black is the colour of my true love's hair.
[00:33.850] Her lips are like a rose so fair.
[00:40.950] She's got the sweetest face and the gentlest hands.
[00:48.150] I love the ground whereon she stands.
[00:55.280] I love my love and well she knows.
[01:02.100] I love the ground whereon she goes.
[01:09.230] And how I wish the day would come,
[01:16.270] when she and I can be as one.
[01:23.380] Black is the colour of my true love's hair.
[01:29.920] Her lips are like a rose so fair.
[01:36.650] She's got the sweetest face and the gentlest hands.
[01:43.940] I love the ground whereon she stands.
[01:52.130] Oh...whereon she stands... .
[01:59.060] Oh...whereon she stands...
[02:05.840] Oh...whereon she stands...
[02:14.030] Oh...whereon she stands...
[02:19.780] Oh...whereon she stands...
[02:26.290]
[02:29.900] I go to the Clyde and mourn and weep
[02:36.830] For satisfied I never will sleep.
[02:43.770] I 'll write her a letter,
[02:46.740] just a few short lines,
[02:50.560] And suffer death ten thousand times.
[02:57.870] Black is the colour of my true love's hair.
[03:04.350] Her lips are like a rose so fair.
[03:11.030] She's got the sweetest face and the gentlest hands.
[03:18.300] I love the ground whereon she stands.
[03:25.040] I love the ground whereon she stands.
[03:32.300] I love the ground...
