We were both young when i first saw you
I close my eyes
And the flashback starts

I'm 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 you know


That i was romeo i was throwing pebbles
And your daddy said stay away from juliet
And you were crying on the staircase

Begging 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 quite 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
And i was begging you 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 i'll be the princess
It's a love story baby just say yes


Romeo save me, then try 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,


I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you would ever coming around
My faith in you was fading

When i met you on the outskirts to town 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
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring


And i said


Marry me juliet you'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all i really know
I talk 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
