|
We were both young when I first saw 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 make your way through the crowd |
|
and say hello |
|
Little did I know |
|
That you were Romeo you were throwing pebbles |
|
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet |
|
And I was crying on the staircase |
|
begging you please don't go |
|
And I 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 |
|
So I sneak out to the 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 you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter |
|
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet |
|
But you were everything to me |
|
I was begging you please don't go |
|
And I 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 |
|
I got tired of waiting |
|
Wondering if you were ever coming around |
|
My faith in you was fading |
|
When I met you on the outskirts of town |
|
And I 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 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 oh oh oh |
|
Cause we were both young when I first saw you |
