Black is the color
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
I love the ground on
Where he stands
Black is the color
Of my true love's hair
Of my true love's hair
Of my true love's hair
Oh I love my lover
And well he knows
Yes I love the ground
On where he goes
And still I hope
That the time will come
When he and I will be as one
When he and I will be as one
When he and I will be as one
Black is the color
Of my true love's hair
Of my true love's hair
Of my true love's hair
