We were both young
When I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standin' 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 throwin' pebbles
And my daddy said "Stay away from Juliet"
And I was cryin' on the staircase
Beggin' 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
'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 beggin' 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 tryna 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"
I got tired of waiting
Wonderin' if you were ever comin' 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"
'cause we were both young
When I first saw you
