Sweet Sixteen Lyrics

When first I saw the love light in your eyes
I thought the world held not the joy for me
And even though we've drifted far apart
I never dreamed but what I dreamed of thee

I love you as I've never loved before
Since first I saw you on the village green
Come to me in my dreams of love adored
I love you as I loved you when you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen

I love you as I've never loved before
Since first I saw you on the village green
Come to me in my dreams of love adored
I love you as I loved you when you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
