When You Were Sweet Sixteen	[print]
(James Thornton)

When first I saw the love light in your eye I dreamt the world held naught but joy for me And even though we drifled 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'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 happy 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 never loved before Since first I met you on the village green Come to me or my dream of love is o'er I love you as I loved you When you were sweet When you were sweet sixteen
