Only Sixteen Lyrics

ONLY SIXTEEN

 Dr Hook

 

 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
