love story

we were both young when i first saw you,
i close my eyes,
and the flash back starts,
im standing there,
on a balcony in summer air,
see the lights,
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 go,
and i said,
romeo take me somewhere we can be alone,
ill be waiting all there's left to do is run,
youll be the prince and ill be the princess,
its 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 your 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 go and i said,
romeo take me somewhere we can be alone,
ill be waiting all there's left to do is run,
youll be the prince and ill be the princess,
its 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,
dont be afraid,
we'll make it out of this mess,
its a love story baby just say yes,
oh oh,
i got tired of waiting,
wondering if you were 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,
i keep waiting for you but you never come,
is this in my head?
i dont know what to think,
he knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring,
and said,
marry me juliet,
youll never have to be alone,
i love you and thats all i really know,
i talked to your dad,
go pick out a white dress,
its a love story baby just say yes,
oh, oh, oh, oh,
cause we were both young when i first saw you
