Taylor Swift - 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.

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 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, because 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 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-

Romeo save me, they’re trying 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, Oh.

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.

We were both young when I first saw you.
