Six boys and seven girls
There were six boys and seven girls
Only six boys and seven girls
Six boys and seven girls
At my sweet sixteen affair
Six couples danced by
And I wanted to cry
'Cause you, you weren't there
Six boys and seven girls
What a dreamy friendly scene
The lights were down low
They were kissing, I know
While I played the record machine
Where were you, my darling
Where were you last night
I hunger for two arms
To hold me so tight
Six boys and seven girls
Six boys and seven girls
At my sweet sixteen affair
They left two by two
And I still looked for you
But you, you, you weren't there
Seis chicos y siete chicas
Había seis chicos y siete chicas
Solo seis chicos y siete chicas
Seis chicos y siete chicas
En mi dulce fiesta de dieciséis
Seis parejas bailaban
Y quería llorar
Porque tú, tú no estabas allí
Seis chicos y siete chicas
Qué escena amigable y soñadora
Las luces estaban bajas
Ellos se estaban besando, lo sé
Mientras yo ponía la máquina de discos
¿Dónde estabas, mi amor?
¿Dónde estabas anoche?
Ansiaba por dos brazos
Que me abrazaran tan fuerte
Seis chicos y siete chicas
Seis chicos y siete chicas
En mi dulce fiesta de dieciséis
Se fueron de dos en dos
Y yo seguía buscándote
Pero tú, tú, tú no estabas allí
