When You Were Sweet Sixteen, lyric by Perry Como

from the songs album unknown

When first i saw the love-light in your eyes,
I dreamed the world held not but joy for me.
And even though we drifted far apart,
I never dream but what i dream of thee.

I love you as i never loved before,
Since first i met you on the village green.
Come to me or my dream of love is o'r,
I love you as i loved you, when you were sweet,
When you were sweet sixteen.

I love you as i never loved before,
Since first i met you on the village green.
Come to me or my dream of love is o'r . . .
I love you as i loved you, when you were sweet,
When you were sweet sixteen.
