Yellow Is The Color Lyrics

Artist: Donovan (Buy Donovan CDs)

Yellow is the color 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 color of the sky-y-y
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 color 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, mm-hmmm,
When I see her, mm-hmmm
That's the time,
That's the time
I love the best

Freedom is a word I rarely use
Without thinking, mm-hmmm,
Without thinking, mm-hmmm,
Of the time,
Of the time
When I've been loved

To me, it means that I can have my freedom from a relationship with a woman if I'm willing to give up love.

No deal.

Alas, lots of spelling errors in these lyrics...Donovan is English and the copyrighted lyrics use 'colour' not 'color'. Also, the song is called 'Colours' not 'Yellow is the Color'
