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 crowd and 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, 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 thy 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.'Cause we were both young when I first saw you...
