Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift - Love Story lyrics

rate me

We were both young when I first saw you

I close my eyes and the flashbacks starts

I'm standing there, on a balcony in summer air

See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns

See you make your way through the crowd

And 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 'cause we're dead if they knew

So close your eyes, escape this town for a little while

Oh, 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 *re-al*

Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess

It's a love story, baby, just say yes

Oh Ohhh

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

'Cause we were both young when I first saw you

Nobody knows that a "scarlet letter" is the letter "A" that people had to wear around their neck when they commited adultry back in the 1800's. intresting right?
