Black Is The Colour Of My True Love's Hair - Jimmy Somerville

Black is the colour 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

Black is the colour of my true love’s hair

I love my lover and well he knows

To be with him and where he goes

And if my love I no longer would see

I feel my heart would cease to beat

For black is the colour of my true love’s hair

Black is the colour of my true love’s hair

The love he gives I will declare

And how I long for the time when it comes

When he and I become undone

And black is the colour of my true love’s hair
