FURIES (1989) - When You Were Sweet Sixteen

 

When first I saw the love-light in your eyes

I thoughtthisworld held naughtt but joy for me

And even though we drifted far apart

I never dreamed but what I dream of thee

 

I love you as I never loved before

Since first I saw you on the village green

Come to me or my dream of love is o'are

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 saw you on the village green

Come to me or my dream of love is o'are

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 saw you on the village green

Come to me or my dream of love is o'are

I LOVE you as I loved you, /when YOU were sweet

When you were sweet sixteen
