Kathy Young with The Innocents. Their biggest hit was a cover of The Rivileers 1954 song "A Thousand Stars", which peaked at #3 on the Billboard Hot 100. This one, however, didn't do well in the charts.
But it's just so heartfelt!
edit: lyrics!
so our parents talked it over
and they all seemed to agree
we were much too young for marriage
you were much too old for me
there would me no ceremony
there would be no weddingbells
just a very lonely girl
and unhappy teenage boy
we begged them and we pleaded
we tried to make them see
i could not live without you
and you so needed me
maybe someday they'll be sorry
and i hope it won't be long
we will prove that what we wanted
was a love that won't go wrong

so our parents talked it over
and they all seemed to agree
we were much too young for marriage
you were much too old for me
there would me no ceremony
there would be no weddingbells
just a very lonely girl
and unhappy teenage boy
we ... and we pleeded
we tried to make them see
i could not live without you
and you ... be
maybe someday they'll be sorry
and i hope it won't be long
we will prove that what we wanted
was a love that won't go wrong
we begged them and we pleaded
and you so needed me?
