Sixteen Going on Seventeen (Reprise)歌词

作曲 : Richard Rodgers

A bell is no bell till you ring it
A song is no song till you sing it
And love in your heart wasn't put there to stay
Love is not love till you give it away

When you are sixteen going on seventeen
Waiting for life to start
Somebody kind who touches your mind
Will suddenly touch your heart

When that happens after it happens
Nothing is quite the same
Somehow I know I'll jump up and go
If ever he calls my name

Gone are your old ideas of life
The old ideas grow dim
Lo and behold you're someone's wife
And you belong to him

You may think this kind of adventure
Never may come to you
Darling sixteen going on seventeen
Wait a year or two
I'll wait a year
Just wait a year or two
