"When You Were Sweet Sixteen" - Maurice Gunsky (1927)

WHEN YOU WERE SWEET SIXTEEN (tenor with piano) (James Thornton) Maurice J. Gunsky accompaniment by Leroy Shield Victor 20693-B, 1927. This Maurice Gunsky recording is on the reverse side of "Dear Old Girl." "When You Were Sweet Sixteen" is the type of sentimental, nostalgic --almost Victorian--song he seems to have specialized in. And this song was, in fact, an old song when Gunsky recorded it; it was published in 1898. "When first I saw the love-light in your eyes And heard your voice, like sweetest melody, Speak words of love to my enraptured soul, The world held nought, but joy in store for me. E'en though we're drifting down life's stream apart, Your face I still can see in dreams' domain; I know that it would ease my breaking heart To hold you in my arms just once again. I love you as I never loved before, Since first I met you on the village green. Come to me 'for my dream of love is o'er. I love you as I loved you, When you were sweet, When you were sweet sixteen."
