Love Story We were both young when I first saw you I close my eyes and the flashback starts
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 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 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...
