LOVE STORY

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.
I see the lights; 

see the party, 

the ball gowns. 

I see you make

your way through the crowd- 

 

You 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, because we're dead if they knew- 

So close your eyes... escape this town for a little while.

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 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, Oh.
'cause we were both young when I first saw you
