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 THE 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 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
OH, OH
'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"
OH, OH
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"
OH, OH, OH...
OH, OH, OH, OH...
'CAUSE WE WERE BOTH YOUNG
WHEN I FIRST SAW YOU
