A lovestruck Romeo
Sings the streets of serenade
Laying everybody low
With a love song that he made
Finds a streetlight
Steps out of the shade
Says something like
"You and me babe, how about it?"
Juliet says, "Hey it's Romeo
You nearly gave me a heart attack"
He's underneath the window
She's singing, "Hey now, my boyfriend's back"
You shouldn't come around here
Singing up at people like that
Anyway, what you gonna do about it?
Juliet the dice were loaded from the start
And I bet and you exploded in my heart
And I forget, I forget the movie song
When you gonna realize
It was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
Come up on different streets
They both were streets of shame
Both dirty, both mean
Yes, and the dream was just the same
And I dreamed your dream for you
And now your dream is real
How can you look at me
As if I was just another one of your deals?
Well you can fall for chains of silver
You can fall for chains of gold
You can fall for pretty strangers
And the promises they hold
You promised me everything
You promised me thick and thin, yeah
Now you just say, "Oh Romeo, yeah
You know I used to have a scene with him"
Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
You said, "I love you like the stars above
I'll love you till I die
There's a place for us, you know the movie song?
When you gonna realize
It was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
I can't do the talk like they talk on the TV
And I can't do a love song like the way it's meant to be
I can't do everything but I'd do anything for you
I can't do anything except be in love with you
All I do is miss you and the way we used to be
All I do is keep the beat and the bad company
And all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme
Juliet I'd do the stars with you any time
Juliet when we made love you used to cry
You said, "I love you like the stars above
I'll love you till I die
There's a place for us, you know the movie song?
When you gonna realize
It was just that the time was wrong Juliet?
And a lovestruck Romeo
Sings the streets of serenade
Laying everybody low
With a love song that he made
Finds a convenient streetlight
Steps out of the shade
He says something like
"You and me babe, how about it?"
You and me babe, how about it?
