Intro

We were both young when i first saw you

I close my eyes and the flashback starts

Im standing there on a balcony of summer air

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 theres left to do is run

 You'll be the prince and i'll be the princess

 Its a love story baby just say yes

 So i sneak out to the garden to see you

 We keep quite because we're dead if they know

 So close your eyes

 Let’s keep this down 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

 and i was begging you please don't go and i said

 Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

 I'll be waiting all theres left to do is run

 You be the prince i'll be the princess

 Its a love story baby just say yes

 Romeo save me, try to tell me how it is

 This love is difficult, but its real,

 Save me from the breakdown, make it out of looseness

 Its a love story baby just say yes, oh

Solo

 I got tired of waiting, wondering if you were ever coming around

 My faith in you was fading

 Then 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 nelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said

 Marry me Juliet you'll 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, yes

 We were very young when i first saw you
