Roy Orbison - 16 Candles lyrics

(words and music by luther dixon and allyson khent)

Happy birthday, happy birthday, baby

Oh, I love you so

Sixteen candles make a lovely light

But not as bright as your eyes tonight (as your eyes tonight) (oh)

Blow out the candles, make your wish come true

For I'll be wishing that you love me, too (that you love me, too)

You're only sixteen (sixteen)

But you're my teenage queen (you're my queen)

You're the prettiest, loveliest girl I've ever seen (I've ever seen) (oh!)

Sixteen candles in my heart will glow

For ever and ever for I love you so (for I love you so)

You're only sixteen (sixteen)

But you're my teenage queen (you're my queen)

Oh, you're the prettiest, loveliest girl I've ever seen (I've ever seen) (oh!)

Sixteen candles in my heart will glow

For ever and ever for I love you so (for I love you so)

For I love you so!!!
