When You Were Sweet Sixteen

When first I saw the love light in your eyes

I thought the world held naught but joy for me

And even though we've drifted far apart

I never dream but what I dream of thee

I loved you as I've never loved before

Since first I saw you on the village green

Come to me, ere my dreams of love that are o'er

I love you as I loved you when you were sweet

When you were sweet sixteen

I loved you as I've never loved before

Since first I saw you on the village green

Come to me, ere my dreams of love that are o'er

I love you as I loved you when you were sweet

When you were sweet sixteen
