Lyrics
0:01She was only sixteen only sixteen
0:08I loved her so
0:11But she was too young to fall in love
0:15And I was too young to know
0:19We'd laugh and we'd sing
0:21And do the little things
0:24That made my heart glow
0:28But she was too young to fall in love
0:32And I was too young to know
0:37Why did I give my heart so fast
0:41It never will happen again
0:45But I was a mere lad of sixteen
0:49I've aged a year since then
0:53She was only sixteen only sixteen
0:59With eyes that would glow
1:02But she was too young to fall in love
1:06And I was too young to know
1:11Then why did you give your heart so fast
1:15Oh it never will happen again
1:19But you were a mere lad of sixteen
1:24I've aged a year since then
1:27She was only sixteen only sixteen
1:33With eyes that would glow
1:36But she was too young to fall in love
1:40And I was too young to know
1:44But she was too young to fall in love
1:49And I was too young to know
1:53She was too young to fall in love
1:58And I was too young to know
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 She was too young to fall in love And I was too young to know
