g thereOn a balcony in summer airSee the lights, see the party, the ball gownsSee you make
your way through the crowdAnd say "Hello"Little did I knowThat you were Romeo, you were t
hrowing pebblesAnd 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 aloneI'll be wa
iting, all there's left to do is runYou'll be the prince, and I'll be the princessIt's a l
ove story, baby, just say yes"So I sneak out to the garden to see youWe keep quiet 'cause
we're dead if they knewSo close your eyesEscape this town for a little while, oh, oh'Cause
