Lirieke: Al Jolson. When You Were Sweet Sixteen.

When first I saw the lovelight in your eye
I dreamt the world had not but joy for me.
And even though we drifted far apart
I never dream, but when 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 over.
I love you as I loved you
When you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen.

Come to me or my dream of love is over.
I love you as I loved you
When you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen.
