Sam Cook Only Sixteen Lyrics

She was only sixteen, only sixteen
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
That made my hearts 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 less 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

So why did you give your heart so fast, Oh, it never will happen again
But you was a mere less of sixteen, I've aged a year since then

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

Yes she was too young to fall in love
And I, I was too young, I was much too young to know
