What’s So Sweet About Sweet Sixteen

What's so sweet about sweet sixteen?
What's so sweet about sweet sixteen?

A tear for every candle
Sixteen tears for sixteen years
Oh, what a lonely birthday

What's so sweet about sweet sixteen?

My boyfriend's gone and left me
He won't be here with me
Oh, what a lonely birthday

What's so sweet about sweet sixteen?

I never expected that on my birthday
We would be apart
And for our birthday present, he'd give me
A broken heart

What's so sweet about sweet sixteen?

When I blow out the candles
I wish he were back with me
Oh, what a lonely birthday

What's so sweet about sweet sixteen?
Oh, what a lonely birthday
What's so sweet about sweet sixteen?
