Keep busy at something, a busy person never has time to be unhappy.

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.

'cause we were both young when I first saw you

'cause we were both young when I first saw you

You're indecisive when it comes to making any plans
You're on the fence
You give me reasons I never seem to understand,
They don't make sense
Maybe ain't enough for my heart
We'll see, ain't off to a great start
Baby, I want you to be mine,
You better hurry ‘cause if I change my mind

[Chorus]
You will never know,
What it means, to love me
And you will never know,
What these two lips taste like to kiss
You can just suppose to what my body feels like to hold
Hope you can deal with, all you will never know

I wanna know you, what's hiding behind this wall
Who you really are
I wanna meet you on the other side of this charade
Wherever the cards may fall
I'm ready to give you my heart
Yea I'm willing to show up for my part
Baby, I want you to be mine,
You better hurry ‘cause if I change my mind

[Chorus/bridge]
You will never know,
What it means, to love me
And you will never know,
What these two lips taste like to kiss
You can just suppose to what my body feels like to hold
Hope you can deal with, all you will never know
About me, what I see, what I believe in,
How I breathe, when I weep
