Black is the Color of My True Love's Hair (trad.) Live vocal. The high notes in this song have always been a thrill to sing -- and I enjoyed finding a song with so many of them!

Lyrics

Black, black, black is the color of my true love's hair
His lips are something wondrous fair
The purest eyes and the bravest hands
I love the ground whereon he stands
Black, black, black is the color of my true love's hair

I love my love and well he knows
I love the ground whereon he goes
And if my love no more I see
My life would quickly fade away
Black, black, black is the color of my true love's hair

The winter's passed and the leaves are green
The time is passed that we have seen
But still I hope the time will come
When you and I will be as one
Black, black, black is the color of my true love's hair

So fare you well my own true love
The time as passed, but I wish you well
If you no more on earth I see
I can't serve you as you serve me
Black, black, black is the color of my true love's hair
