[00:00.00]I Wish (Till Apples Grow On An Ivy Tree) (Bonus Track - From 'The Dubliners In Person') - The Dubliners
[00:02.82]I wish I wish I wish in vain
[00:10.46]I wish I wish I was a youth again
[00:16.38]But a youth again I can never be
[00:23.12]Till apples grow on an ivy tree
[00:29.55]I left me father I left me mother
[00:36.84]I left all my sisters and brothers too
[00:41.87]I left all my friends and my own religion
[00:48.68]I left them all for to follow you
[00:54.82]But the sweetest apple is the soonest rotten
[01:01.78]And the hottest love is the soonest cold
[01:06.85]And what can't be cured love must be endured love
[01:13.25]And now I am bound for Americay
[01:19.31]And love is pleasin' and love is teasin'
[01:25.62]And love is a pleasure when first it's new
[01:30.63]But as it grows older sure the love grows colder
[01:36.83]And it fades away like the morning dew
[01:43.03]For love and porter makes a young man older
[01:49.48]And love and whiskey makes him old and grey
[01:54.70]And what can't be cured love must be endured love
[02:00.99]And now I am bound for Americay
