Chorus:
Love is a teasing and love is pleasing
And love is a treasure when first it's new
But as it grows older then love grows colder
And fades away like the morning dew.
I left my Father, I left my Mother
I left my sisters & brothers too
I left my friends and my kind relations
I left them all for to go with you.
Chorus
Oh turn around love, your wheel of fortune
Oh turn around love and smile on me
For surely there must be a place of torment
for that young girl who deceiv-ed me.
Chorus
Oh lads beware of your false true lovers
and never mind what the young girls say
They're like the stars on a summer's morning
you think they're near but they're far away.
Chorus
