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
 I 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"
 ♪
 Oh-oh-oh
 Oh-oh-oh
 
 Mm-mmm
 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 I was Romeo, you were a scarlet letter
 And your daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
 But you were everything to me
 And 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
 Ooh-oh-oh
 Ooh-oh-oh
 Mm-mmm
 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 feelin' 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"
