Romeo and Juliet

We were both young when I first met you

I close my eyes and the flashback starts

I'm standing there

On a balcony, in summer air

 

See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns

See you standing there as I make my way through the crowd

And say "Hello"

Little did you know

 

That I was Romeo I was throwing pebbles

And Your daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"

And you were crying on the staircase

Begging me, "Please don't go"

And you said

 

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run

You'll be the princess and I'll be the prince

It's a love story, baby, just say yes"

 

So I sneak out to your garden to see you

We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew

So close your eyes

Escape this town for a little while

 

'Cause I was Romeo, you were the scarlet letter

And Your daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"

But you were everything to me

You were begging me to "Please don't go"

And you said

 

"Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone

I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run

You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess

It's a love story, baby, just say yes"

 

Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel

This love is difficult, but it's real

Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess

It's a love story, baby, just say yes

Oh, oh

 

you got tired of waiting

Wondering if I was ever coming around

your faith in me was fading

When You met me on the outskirts of town

And you said

 

Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone

I keep waiting for you, but you never come

Is this in my head? I don't know what to think

He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring

And said

 

"Marry me, Juliet, you'll never have to be alone

I love you, and that's all I really know

I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress

It's a love story, baby, just say yes"

 

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

'Cause we were both young when I first saw you

 

I knew then that our love would be never-ending and would make for a beautiful love story

Because I was Romeo and you are my Juliet our love written in the stars
