Could anyone help with lyric of the "When you were sweet sixteen" from the album "The Fureys and Davey Arthur - Live at Dublin National Stadium"?

I have this song but my comprehension of live english isn't good enough to catch all the words!

VERY VERY THANKS!

Sweet Sixteen

When first I saw the love light in your eyes
I thought the world held nought but joy for me
And even though we’ve drifted far apart
I never dreamed but what I dreamed of you

chorus:
I love you as I never love before
When first I saw you on the village green
Come to me e’re my dreams of love are o’er
I love you as I loved you,
When you were sweet
When you were sweet - sixteen
