TAYLOR SWIFT LYRICS
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.
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 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 that'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. Oh, oh.
'Cause you were Romeo – I was a scarlet letter, And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet."
But you were everything to me,
I was begging you, "Please don't go."
And I said...
"Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone. I'll be waiting; all that'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.'
I got tired of waiting Wondering if you were ever coming 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 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, 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.'"
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
'Cause we were both young when I first saw you...
