We were both youngh when I first saw you I close my eyes and the falshback 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 (ile) oh Oh 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 the 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.
