Only Sixteen

She was only 16, only 16
And 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

Why did I give my heart so fast?
It never will happen again
I was a mere child of 16
But I've aged a year since then

She was only 16, only 16
Ooh, with eyes that would 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
I was a mere child of 16
But I've aged a year since then

She was only 16, only 16
Ooh, 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
