LYRICS
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, scape 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, 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, oh
Cause we were both young
When I first saw you
