Always Sixteen

Old Mr. Johnson and his wife attend my church
Fifty-two years and they still love like it's the first
He holds the door, she holds his hand, they kiss a little
He helps her in the truck, she slides right to the middle

And so one day I ask him how they keep the fire alive
He said, "You see two old people but somethin' deep inside"

Love is always sixteen
It's always the same though people might change
It's forever young
Love don't have to turn cold though lovers grow old
Love don't have to grow weak
'Cause love is always sixteen

Baby, don't you find it just a little bit peculiar
However close we get, we're never too familiar
Everyday I wake up lovin' you so much it hurts
Baby, every kiss we kiss still feels like it's the first

And it turns me on and though this feeling's never gonna fade
I'm still gonna want you even when we're old and gray

Love is always sixteen
It's always the same though people might change
It's forever young
Love don't have to turn cold though lovers grow old
Love don't have to grow weak
'Cause love is always sixteen

Through all of it's phases, it's timeless and ageless
Youre like the sun in a clear morning sky

Love is always sixteen
It's always the same though people might change
It's forever young
Love don't have to turn cold though lovers grow old
Love don't have to grow weak
Cause love, cause love is always sixteen, is always sixteen
