I was so young you were so beautiful,
What was a fellow to do
I was enraptured with you
They told me not to, but still I loved you, how I loved you,

I was so young you were so beautiful,
I knew you couldn't be true.

Each time I looked at you my heart grew sad,
'Twas then I realized why men go mad,
You made me give you all the love I had,
For I was so young, yes, I was so young, and you were so beautiful.
