Lyrics

words and music by Donovan

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

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

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

Mellow is the feeling that I get
When I see him, m-hmm
When I see him, m-hmm
That's the time, that's the time
I love the best

Freedom is a word I rarely use
Without thinking, m-hmm
Without thinking, m-hmm
Of the time, of the time
When I've been loved
