Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, love is teasing and love is pleasing
And love's a pleasure when first it is new
But as love grows older, it still grows colder
And fades away like the morning dew
[Verse 2]
Come all you fair maids, now take a warning
Don't ever heed what a young man say
He's like a star on some foggy morning
When you think he's near, he is far away
[Instrumental]
I left my father, I left my mother
I left my brothers and sisters too
I left my home and my fond dwelling
My young man for, for the sake of you
[Verse 3]
Oh, love is teasing and love is pleasing
And love's a pleasure when first it is new
But as love grows older, it still grows colder
And fades away like the morning dew
