She was only sixteen, only sixteen
|
But 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 funny things
|
And it made our hearts glow
|
But she was too young to fall in love
|
And I was too young to know
|
|
So why did I give my heart so fast
|
It never will happen again
|
But I was a mere child of sixteen
|
I've aged a year since then
|
|
She was only sixteen, only sixteen
|
Ooh, with eyes that would glow
|
But she was too young to fall in love
|
And I was too young to know
|
|
So why did I give my heart so fast
|
It never will happen again
|
But I was a mere child of sixteen
|
I've aged a year since then
|
|
Now she was only sixteen, only sixteen
|
Ooh, but I loved that girl so
|
|
But she was too young to fall in love
|
And I was too young to know
|
|
Yes, she was too young to fall in love
|
And I, I was too young
|
I was much too young to know
|
