Sixteen
Orla Gartland

And she was no beauty queen

She was in love at just sixteen

With an older boy who hardly knew her name

She would think of him and say

You will be mine some day

But her head was filled with things that could've been

And she was just sixteen


Her head was filled with fairydust and gold

She never did what she was told

But she knew what she wanted from a very young age

Didn't care about a job or give a damn about a wage


She just wanted him

And she wanted him for good

She would do whatever it took, whatever she could

And now she can't stop loving him she never meant to start

But what else can you expect from a foolish heart


And she was no beauty queen

She was in love at just sixteen

With an older boy who hardly knew her name

She would think of him and say

You will be mine some day

But her head was filled with things that could've been

And she was just sixteen


Age is but a number she would say and she'd believe

But four years is way too long to wear your heart on your sleeve

And she thought maybe it's time to move on, it's been too long romance is gone,

Sung is the song and now this feels all wrong

And in a world of advice she feels so small

Someone better tell this girl it's probably not love at all


And she was no beauty queen

She was in love at just sixteen

With an older boy who hardly knew her name

She would think of him and say

You will be mine some day

But her head was filled with things that could've been

And she was just sixteen


Oh no, here she goes again


And she got what she wanted when he returned her love

Everything was cosy he fit her like a glove

She always dreamt of things she never had though she knew that it was wrong

He blinked and she blinked and suddenly thirty years were gone

They remembered all the times that she


Was no beauty queen

She was in love at just sixteen

With an older boy who hardly knew her name

She would think of him and say

You will be mine some day

But her head was filled with things that could've been

And she was just sixteen
