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
