We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm 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 you know
That I was Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And your daddy said: Stay away from Juliet
And you were crying on the staircase
Begging me: Please don't go
And you 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: Yyes
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
Oh, hey
'Cause I was Romeo, you were the scarlet letter
And your daddy said: Stay away from juliet
But you were everything to me
I was begging you: Please don't go
And you 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
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
You got tired of waiting
Wondering if I was ever coming around
Your faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town
And you 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
Baby, just say: Yes
Baby, just say: Yes
Baby, just say: Yes
Yes!
Baby, just say: Yes
