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 that'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"
|
|
Oh, oh
|
|
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'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.
