| | Song Lyrics | What`s this dull town to me?
Robin`s not near, -
What was`t I wished to see,
Wished for to hear;
Where`s all the joy and mirth
Made this town heaven on earth?
O, they`re all fled with thee,
Robin Adair!
What made the assembly shine?
Robin Adair:
What made the ball so fine?
Robin was there:
What, when the play was o`er,
What made my heart so sore?
O, it was parting with
Robin Adair!
But now th` art cold to me,
Robin Adair;
But now th`art cold to me
Robin Adair;
Yet he I loved so well
Still in my heart shall dwell;
O, I can ne`er forget
Robin Adair!
