Only Sixteen Lyrics

She was only sixteen, only sixteen,
But I loved her so.
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,
Ooo, with eyes that would glow.
But she was too young to fall in love,
And I was too young to know.
[Instrumental break.]

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,

Ooo, 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.

Ahhhhh-ohhhhhh.
