Come all ye fair and tender ladies take warning how you court young men They're like a star on a summer morning they first appear and then they're gone They'll tell to you some loving story and make you think they love you so well Away they'll go and court some other and leave you there in grief to dwell Oh love is handsome love is charming and love is pretty while it's new But love grows cold as love goes old and fades away like morning dew And fades away like morning dew
