Bella stared at Edward, through her curtain of hair.
We
were both young
when I first saw you
I
closed my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standing there
On a
balcony in summer air
Edward followed her quietly, knowing from Alice's visions that something bad would happen. But, he wouldn't let it.
See
the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
I see you make your way
through the crowd
And say hello
Little did I know
"It's better that we aren't friends. I never said I didn't want to be. But it's prudent that we aren't."
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
"Take her to that place, Edward. I already know you were going too…" Alice 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
"Can
I see you hunt?" Bella asked. "No!" I said with more force than
I has intended. 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
"Why don't you tell Charlie that I'm your boyfriend?" Edward asked. "Trust me, its better off this way."
Oh
oh
Cause you were Romeo, I was the scarlet letter
And my daddy
said, "stay away from Juliet"
But you were my 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
He picked me up and put me on his back. Then he took off at full speed running. The return journey took only a few minutes, versus the hours that it had taken us to hike to that spot.
Oh oh
Romeo,
save
me
They try to tell me how I 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
He watched her from the shadows, cursing the sunlight that wouldn't let him emerge and save her from Mike.
I
got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My
faith in you is fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town
And
I said
I looked over at the table where the Cullen's usually sat. They weren't there, I knew they wouldn't be, but I wanted Edward to be there.
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
"Why? Why won't you turn me? You know that I'll eventually die."
Oh oh oh 'Cause we were both young when I first saw you
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
