She was only sixteen only sixteen

But 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

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

Ooh with eyes that would 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

Now she was only sixteen only sixteen

Ooh 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 ohhh
