   Bum bum bum da de da ah come back to me my love
   Come back to me
  
   16 years ago today early one Sunday morn
   Just before the break of day a cute little girl was born
   From that very moment on her life's been gay and free
   Laughing eyes and loving ways as sweet as she could be
  
   Bum bum bum da de da oh oh oh yeah yeah
   Bum bum bum da de da ah come back to me my love
   come back to me
  
   We had a quarrel I can't forget the night I made her cry
   Her tender heart just fell apart as she said good-bye
   Now today is her birthday my baby's sweet 16
   But someone else is in my place to hold my every dream
   Bum bum bum da de da oh oh oh yeah yeah
   Bum bum bum da de da ah come back to me my love
   come back to me
