Love Is Pleasing Lyrics

Love Is Pleasing - The Dubliners

Written by:Ronnie

I wish I wish I wish in vain

 

I wish I wish I was a youth again

 

But a youth again I can never be

 

Till apples grow on an ivy tree

 

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

 

But the sweetest apple is the soonest rotten

 

And the hottest love is the soonest cold

 

And what can't be cured love must be endured love

 

And my own true love I will ne'er more behold

 

And love is pleasing and love is teasing

 

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 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 american
