love story...

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...

See the lights...

see the party....

the ball gowns...

See you make your way through the crowdand 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 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 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 tryin' 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....

I got tired of waiting,

Wondering 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.'

Oh, oh.

We were both young when i first saw you...
