Isobel Campbell - O Love Is Teasin' lyrics

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

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

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
