O Love Is Teasin' - Rhiannon Giddens

Oh love is teasin', and love is pleasin'

And love’s a pleasure when first it is new

But as love grows older, it still grows colder

And fades away like the mornin' dew

Come all ye fair maids, now take a warnin'

Don’t ever heed what a young man’ll say

He’s like a star on a foggy mornin'

When you think he’s near, he’s far away

I left my father, I left my mother

I left my brothers, and my sisters too

I left my home, and my fond dwelling

My young man, for the sake of you

Oh love is teasin', and love is pleasin'

And love’s a pleasure when first it is new

But as love grows older, it still grows colder

And fades away like the mornin' dew
