Sam Cooke - Only sixteen - remastered lyrics

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 the little things That made my heart 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 lad 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 (But why did you give your heart so fast?) Boy, it never will happen again (But you were a mere lad 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 She was too young to fall in love And I was too young to know
