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
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

Oh, 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

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 he 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, you`ll pick out a white dress
It`s a love story, baby, just say yes

Oh, oh, oh, oh

We were both young when i first saw you
