We were both young when i first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
Im standing there on a balcony of summer air
See the lights, See the party the ball gowns
I see you make your way through the crowd
You 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
Ill be waiting all theres left to do is run
Youll be the prince and ill be the princess
Its a love story baby just say yes

So i sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quite because were dead if they know
So close your eyes
Lets keep this down 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
and i was begging you please dont go and i said
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
Ill be waiting all theres left to do is run
You be the prince ill be the princess
Its a love story baby just say yes

Romeo save me, try to tell me how it is
This love is difficult, but its real,
Save me from the breakdown, make it out of looseness
Its a love story baby just say yes, oh

Solo: C G Am F

I got tired of waiting, wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
Then i met you on the outskirts of town and i said
Romeo save me ive 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 youll never have to be alone
I love you and thats all I really know
I talked to your dad go pick out a white dress
Its a love story baby just say yes
Oh, oh, yes
We were very young when i first saw you
