Colours (Singers: Joan Baez & Donovan)

Yellow is the colour of my true love's hair
In the morning when we rise
In the morning when we rise
That's the time, that's the time I love the best

Blue is the colour of the sky
In the morning when we rise
In the morning when we rise
That's the time, that's the time I love the best

Green is the colour of the sparkling corn
In the morning when we rise
In the morning when we rise
That's the time, that's the time I love the best

Mellow is the feeling that I get
When I see her, uh huh
When I see her, uh huh
That's the time, that's the time I love the best

Freedom is a word I rarely use
Without thinkin', uh huh
Without thinkin', uh huh
Of the time, of the time when I been loved

Yellow is the colour of my true love's hair
In the morning when we rise
In the morning when we rise
That's the time, that's the time I love the best

Singers: Joan Baez, Donovan Leitch
Songwriter: Donovan Leitch

The birds are singing
Anew
The Lifve in spring
Before it arrives

It Is
a Melodie
born
Out of ice
And frost

Of memories

And nights
Of worries
Tossed
And in them

Lost

And then one Day as now

Lifve Strives
To feel the flow

And in the mild
Wind
First
Gems of the time do grow

And eventually you stop
And see and feel and
Show

All Love is there

It melts my Heart
Like
As melted the snow

And I listen

And I care oh yes let’s live
The Love of Lifve
And let’s in eternity dare

To embrace each moment given

For Love is what we have what we are living
And Loves and Love Forever we Are and will be inmitten
My Joan Baez Deine Kathy Katharine Baez KatharinA Scharlowski
