Píseň: Only Sixteen

Interpret:: Sam Cooke
Album:: Hit Kit

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 funny things 
 And it made our hearts glow 
 But she was too young to fall in love 
 And I was too young to know 


 So 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 
 oh with eyes that would glow 
 But she was too young to fall in love 
 and I was too young to know 


 (So why did I give my heart so fast) 
 But, it never will happen again 
 (But I were a mere child of sixteen) 
 Oh, I've aged a year since then 


 She was only sixteen, only sixteen 
 Oh but I loved that girl so 
 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, I was too young, I was much too young know
