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 love you as I've never loved before Since first I saw you on the village green Come to me or my dream of love is o'er I love you as I loved you When you were sweet When you were sweet sixteen Last night I dreamt I held your hand in mine And once again you were my happy bride I kissed you as I did in auld lang syne As to the church we wandered side by side I love you as I've never loved before Since first I saw you on the village green Come to me or my dreams of love is o'er I love you as I loved you When you were sweet When you were sweet sixteen
