We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standin' there
On a balcony in summer air
I See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns

You see me make my way through the crowd
And say, "Hello"
Little did you know
That i was Romeo, and i was throwin' pebbles
And your daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
And you were cryin' on the staircase Beggin' me, "Please don't go, "
And you 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 i was Romeo, you were a scarlet letter
And your daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
But you were everything to me
You were beggin' me, "Please don't go, "
And I said Juliet, I'll take you somewhere we can be alone
Just keep waiting, all there's left to do is run
I'll be the prince and you'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"
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 you 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
Then I knelt on 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, you'll pick out a white dress
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"
