Love Is Pleasing Songtext
von Foster & Allen

For love is pleasin′ and love is teasin'
And love is a pleasure when first it′s new
But as it grows older, sure the love grows colder
And it fades away like the morning dew

I wish, I wish, oh I wish in vain
I wish I was a youth again
But a youth again I can never be
'Til apples grow on an ivy tree

For love is pleasin' and love is teasin′
And love is a pleasure when first it′s new
But as it grows older, sure the love grows colder
And it fades away like the morning dew


I left my father, I left my mother
I left all my sisters and brothers too
I left all my friends and my own religion
I left them all for to follow you

For love is pleasin' and love is teasin′
And love is a pleasure when first it's new
But as it grows older, sure the love grows colder
And it fades away like the morning dew

For love and porter makes a young man older
And love and whiskey makes him old and grey
And what can′t be cured love must be endured love
And now I am bound for Americay

For love is pleasin' and love is teasin′
And love is a pleasure when first it's new
But as it grows older, sure the love grows colder
And it fades away like the morning dew

And it fades away like the morning dew
