about

Introduced by the acoustic tanpura- the Indian drone instrument- this Celtic
song finds a new home in an Indian Latin blues groove.

lyrics

Black is the colour of my true love's hair
His lips are like some roses fair
He's the sweetest smile, and the gentlest hands
I love the ground whereon he stands

I love my love and well he knows
I love the ground whereon he goes
And I wish the day, it soon would come
When he and I could be as one

I go to the Clyde and I mourn and weep
For satisfied I never can be
I write him a letter, just a few short lines
And suffer death, a thousand times
