<< Only Sixteen >>
|
--- Sam Cooke
|
|
She was only sixteen, only sixteen
|
I loved her so
|
But she was too young to fall in love
|
And I was too young to know
|
|
We'd laugh and we'd sing
|
And do the little things
|
That made my heart glow
|
But she was too young to fall in love
|
And I was too young to know
|
|
Why did I give my heart so fast
|
It never will happen again
|
But I was a mere lad of sixteen
|
I've aged a year since then
|
|
She was only sixteen, only sixteen
|
With eyes that would glow
|
But she was too young to fall in love
|
And I was too young to know
|
|
(Then why did you give your heart so fast)
|
Oh, it never will happen again
|
(But you were a mere lad of sixteen)
|
I've aged a year since then
|
|
She was only sixteen, only sixteen
|
With eyes that would glow
|
But she was too young to fall in love
|
And I was too young to know
|
But she was too young to fall in love
|
And I was too young to know
|
