Fair And Tender Ladies Lyrics - Emmylou Harris

come all you fair and tender ladies 

take warning how you court your men 

there like a star on a summer morning 

they first appear and then there gone 

they'll tell to you some loving story 

then they make you think that they love you well 

then away they'll go to court some other 

and leave you there in grief to dwell 

(mandolin break)

i wish i was on some tall mountain 

where the ivy rocks are black as ink 

i'd write a letter to my false true lover 

whose cheeks are like the morning dew 

(dorbo and fiddle solo)

oh love is handsome love is charming 

and love is pretty while it's new 

but love grows cold as love grows old 

and fades away like morning dew 

(repeat chours)
