[Verse 1]
Do you remember when we moved out?
My mum said, "I love you, but it's a small house"
So we changed up and saved up
Gave up our town
We were dangerous, couldn't tame us
What's missing now?

[Pre-Chorus]
Time (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
Suddenly, we got no time (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
We're so busy doing life (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
That I miss your eyes on mine, mine

[Chorus]
If you just focus on me
Like we were sixteen
And plotting our lives
Can I wear your t-shirt and sleep
On you while I dream
Of all the good times?
When we were sixteen

[Post-Chorus]
Like we were sixteen
Like we were sixteen

[Verse 2]
Do you remember the teacher said
"You're too young, too stupid, don't lose your head"
But years gone and we held on with the best intent
Just two kids who kicked it on MSN

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, time (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
Suddenly, we got no time (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
We're so busy doing life (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
That I miss your eyes on mine, mine

[Chorus]
Oh, if you just focus on me
Like we were sixteen
And plotting our lives (When we were plotting our lives)
Can I wear your t-shirt and sleep (Oh)
On you while I dream (Oh)
Of all the good times?
When we were sixteen

[Post-Chorus]
Like we were sixteen
Oh, oh
Like we were sixteen

[Bridge]
Let's take the love that we found
And give it back to ourselves
Sometimes, these things don't work out
Sometimes, there'll be no one else
They said we'd never even make it this far
But here we are
And we're still counting stars
Like we were sixteen

[Outro]
Oh, when we were sixteen
Oh, oh
We're still counting stars like we were sixteen
We're still counting stars like we were sixteen

Ellie Goulding

Elena Jane “Ellie” Goulding (born 30 December 1986) – is an English singer-songwriter. In 2010, she became the second artist to both top the BBC’s annual Sound of… poll and win the Critics' Choice Award at the Brit Awards in the same year, following Adele’s win of both in 2008. Originally her music incorporated elements of folk, pop, electronica, and folktronica.

In July 2009, Goulding signed with Polydor Records, and released her debut EP An Introduction to Ellie Goulding, later that year. Her debut single, “Under The Sheets” was then released in November.

In 2010 Goulding recorded and released her debut record Lights, which spawned four charting singles in the UK, the biggest of which “Starry Eyes” peaked at #4 in the UK and charted in many European countries and Australia.
