Happy birthday, happy birthday, baby
|
Oh, I love you so
|
|
Sixteen candles make a lovely light
|
But not as bright as your eyes tonight (as your eyes tonight) (Oh)
|
Blow out the candles, make your wish come true
|
For I'll be wishing that you love me, too (that you love me, too)
|
|
You're only sixteen (sixteen)
|
But you're my teenage queen (you're my queen)
|
You're the prettiest, loveliest girl I've ever seen (I've ever seen) (OH!)
|
|
Sixteen candles in my heart will glow
|
For ever and ever for I love you so (for I love you so)
|
|
You're only sixteen (sixteen)
|
But you're my teenage queen (you're my queen)
|
Oh, you're the prettiest, loveliest girl I've ever seen (I've ever seen) (OH!)
|
|
Sixteen candles in my heart will glow
|
For ever and ever for I love you so (for I love you so)
|
For I love you so!!!
