We were both young when I first saw you,
I close my eyes, and the flash back starts.
I'm standing there. On a balcony of summer air.

I 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,
I'll be waiting all theres left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
I'ts a love story baby, just say yes

So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quite because we're dead if they know
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
