[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 (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
Suddenly, we got no time (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
We're so busy doing life (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
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 (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
Suddenly, we got no time (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
We're so busy doing life (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
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 (Oh)
On you while I dream (Oh)
Of all the good times?
When we were sixteen
[Post-Chorus]
Like we were sixteen
Oh, oh
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
Oh, oh
We're still counting stars like we were sixteen
We're still counting stars like we were sixteen

I’m so excited to share ‘Sixteen’ with everyone. That age was such a pivotal year for me in many ways and this song is so close to my heart. It takes me back to the reckless days of being a teenager and I hope it reminds us all about the innocence of youth.
