Love Story

Lyrics

 * 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.


 * I see the lights; see the party, the ball gowns.
 * I see you make your way through the crowd-
 * You 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, because we're dead if they knew-
 * So close your eyes... escape this town for a little while.
 * Oh, Oh.


 * 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 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.


 * I got tired of waiting.
 * Wondering if you were ever coming 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 my 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, Oh, Oh, Oh.


 * Cause we were both young when I first saw you
