Sixteen lyrics

[Verse 1]

Do you remember when we moved out?

My mum said, "I love you, but it's a small house"

So we changed up and saved up

Gave up our town

We were dangerous, couldn't tame us

What's missing now?

[Pre-Chorus]

Time

Suddenly, we got no time

We're so busy doing life

That I miss your eyes on mine, mine

[Chorus]

If you just focus on me

Like we were sixteen

And plotting our lives

Can I wear your t-shirt

And sleep on you

While I dream of all the good times?

When we were sixteen

[Post-Chorus]

Like we were sixteen

Like we were sixteen

[Verse 2]

Do you remember the teacher said

"You're too young, too stupid, don't lose your head"

But years gone and we held on with the best intent

Just two kids who kicked it on MSN

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, time

Suddenly, we got no time

We're so busy doing life

That I miss your eyes on mine, mine

[Chorus]

Oh, if you just focus on me

Like we were sixteen

And plotting our lives (When we were plotting our lives)

Can I wear your t-shirt

And sleep on you

While I dream of all the good times?

When we were sixteen

[Post-Chorus]

Like we were sixteen

Like we were sixteen

[Bridge]

Let's take the love that we found

And give it back to ourselves

Sometimes these things don't work out

Sometimes there'll be no one else

They said we'd never even make it this far

But here we are

And we're still counting stars

Like we were sixteen

[Outro]

Oh, when we were sixteen

We're still counting stars like we were sixteen

We're still counting stars like we were sixteen
