W:But as it grows older then love grows colder W:And fades away like the morning dew. W:. W:I left my father, I left my mother W:I left my sisters and brothers too W:I left my friends and my kind relations, W:I left them all for the love of you. W:. W:Oh turn around love, your wheel of fortune. W:Oh turn around love and smile on me. W:For surely there must be a place of torment. W:For that young girl who deceived me. W:. W:So lads, beware of your false true lovers, W:And never mind what the young girls say. W:They're like the stars on a summer's morning; W:You think they're near but they're far away.
