When first I saw the love-light in your eyes
I dreamed the world held not but joy for me
And ev-en though we drift-ed far a-part
I ne-ver dream but what I dream of thee

I love you as I ne-ver loved be-fore
Since first I met you on the vill-age green
Come to me or my dream of love is oer
I love you as I loved you, when you were sweet
When you were sweet six-teen

I love you as I ne-ver loved before
Since first I met you on the village green
Come to me or my dream of love is oer
I love you as I loved you, when you were sweet
When you were sweet six-teen
