Only Sixteen Lyrics

The song Only Sixteen is performed by Sam Cooke in the album named 16 Most Requested Songs in the year 1995 .



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
oh 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)
But, it never will happen again
(But I were a mere child of sixteen)
Oh, I've aged a year since then

She was only sixteen, only sixteen
Oh but I loved that girl so
But she was too young to fall in love
And I was too young to know
She was too young to fall in love
And I, I was too young, I was much too young know
