The Celtic Tenors - An Irish Songbook

When You Were Sweet Sixteen

When first I saw the love light in your eye
I dreamt the world held naught but joy for me
And even though we drifted far apart
I never dream but what I dream of thee

I love you as I've never loved before
Since first I saw you on the village green
Come to me or my dream of love is o'er
I love you as I loved you
When you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen

Last night I dreamt I held you in my arms
And once again, you were my happy bride
I kissed you as I did in Auld Lang Syne
As to the church we wandered side by side

I love you as I've never loved before
Since first I saw you on the village green
Come to me or my dream of love is o'er
I love you as I loved you
When you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen
