Stanley Brothers - Sixteen Years Lyrics

When we were young we played together

That's the way our love began

Now you're gone dear with another

Now you're no more than just a friend



Sixteen years we were married

I remember the day that we were wed

Sixteen years is a mighty long time

Now you're gone I'm losin my mind



Now the days are long and the nights are lonesome

It seems like years have past and gone

I didn't know you were unhappy

I didn't know anything was wrong
