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