we were both young when i first saw you
i close my eyes
and the flashback starts
im standing there
on a balcony of summer air
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 theres left to do is run
you'll be the prince and i'll be the princess
its 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
lets keep this down 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
and i was begging you please don't go and i said
romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
i'll be waiting all theres left to do is run
you be the prince and i'll be the princess
its a love story baby just say yes
Romeo save me they're trying to tell me how to feel
this love is difficult, but its real
Don't be afraid we'll get 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 is fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town
And I said
Romeo save me ive been feeling so alone
Ill 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 you'll pick out a white dress
It's a love story
Baby, just say yes
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
We were both young when I first saw you
