love story

we were both young when i 1st saw you
i close my eye
and the flashbacks start
i'm standing there

see the light
see the party, the ball gowns
i 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 dont'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 i they knew
so close your eyes
scape this town for a little while

'cause yuo 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 dont'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 try to tell me how to feel
this love is difficult but its real
don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
it's a love story baby just say yes
oh oh

i got tired of waiting
wondering i were ever coming around
my faith in you is fading
when i met you on the outskirts of town, and said

romeo save me i've been feeling so alone
i've been waiting for you but you never come
is this in my head? i don't what to think
he knelt to the ground and pulled out of 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, oh, oh
'cause we were both young when i 1st saw you
