O Love Is Teasin'

O 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

Don't ever heed what a young man say

He's like a star on some foggy morning

You think he's near he's far away

I left my father I left my mother

I left my brothers and sisters too

I left my home and my fond relations

Oh my young man for the sake of you

O love is pleasing and love is teasing

And love's a pleasure when first it is new

But as love grows older it soon grows colder

And fades away like the morning dew
