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 crowdand 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 tryin' 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.I got tired of waiting,Wondering if you were ever comin' 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 thy 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.We were both young when I first saw you...
