When You Were Sweet Sixteen - Finbar Wright/James Thornton

作词：James Thornton

作曲：James Thornton

Since first I saw the love light in your eye

I dreamt the world held naught 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 dreams of love are 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 bonnie 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 met you on the village green

Come to me or my dreams of love are o'er

I love you as I loved you

When you were sweet when you were sweet sixteen
