Only Sixteen

Only Sixteen - Cornell Campbell

She was only sixteen

But I loved her so

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

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

With eyes that would glow

But she was too young to fall in love

And I was too young to know

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

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
