Black is the Color

Black is the color of my true love's hair His face is like some rosy fair With the prettiest face, and the neatest hands I love the ground whereon he stands I love my love and well he knows I love the ground whereon he goes If you no more on earth I see I can't serve you as you have me The winter's passed and the leaves are green The time has passed that we have seen Still I hope the day will come when you and I shall be as one

I go to the Clyde for to mourn and weep but satisfied I never could sleep I'll write for you a few short lines And I'd suffer death 10,000 times So fair-the-well my own true love Our time has passed but I wish you well Still I hope the day will come When you and I shall be as one I love my love, and well he knows I love the ground whereon he goes If you no more on earth I see I can't serve you as you have me
