We were both young when I first saw you
Iclose my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standingthere 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 didI know...
Thatyou were Romeo, you were
throwing pebbles,
And mydaddy said, "Stay away from
Juliet"
And I wascrying on the staircase
Begging you, "Please don't
go"
AndI said...
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting all that'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 youreyes... escape this town for a
little
while
Oh, oh
'causeyou were Romeo - I was a
scarlet letter,
And mydaddy said, "Stay away from
Juliet"
But you wereeverything to me,
I wasbegging you, "Please don't
go"
AndI said...
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting all that'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 ofwaiting
Wondering ifyou were ever coming ar
ound
My faith in youwas fa
ding
When Imet 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
Isthis in my head? I don't know what to think
Heknelt 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
Italked to your dad go pick out a white dress
It's a love story,
baby, just say,
"Yes"
Oh,oh, oh,
oh, oh
'causewe were both young when I first saw
you
