Oh love is teasing and love is pleasing
And love's a treasure when first it's new
But as love grows older at length (it) grows colder
And fades away like the morning dew
I left my mother and I left my father
I left my brothers and my sisters too
I left my home and my fond relations
I left them all for the love of you
Now if I'd known before I courted
That love had been so hard to hold
I'd have locked my heart in a box of silver
And bound it fast with a key of gold
Oh love is teasing and love is pleasing
And love's a treasure when first it's new
But as love grows older so love grows colder
And fades away like the morning dew
