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
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
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say, "Hello"
Little did I know
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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"
[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
'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
[Chorus]
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"
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh
[Bridge]
And 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
[Chorus]
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'
[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
'Cause we were both young when I first saw you
Pareho kaming bata nung una kitang makita
Napapikit ako at nagsimula ang flashback
Nakatayo ako dun
Sa isang balkonahe sa hangin sa tag-init
Tingnan ang mga ilaw, tingnan ang pagdiriwang, ang mga ball gown
Makita ang iyong daan patungo sa karamihan ng tao
At sabihin, "Kamusta"
Hindi ko alam
[Bago mag chorus]
Na ikaw si Romeo, nagtatapon ka ng maliliit na bato
At sinabi ng aking tatay, "Lumayo ka kay Juliet"
At umiiyak ako sa hagdanan
Nakikiusap sa iyo, "Mangyaring huwag pumunta," at sinabi ko
[Koro]
Romeo, dalhin mo ako sa kung saan tayo maaaring mag-isa
Maghihintay ako, ang natitira lang gawin ay ang pagtakbo
Ikaw ang magiging prinsipe at ako ang magiging prinsesa
Kwento ng pag-ibig, baby, sabihin mo lang na "Oo"
[Talata 2]
Kaya't lumabas ako sa hardin upang makita ka
Natahimik kami 'dahil patay kami kung alam nila
Kaya ipikit mo ang iyong mga mata
Makatakas sa bayan na ito ng kaunting sandali, oh, oh
[Bago mag chorus]
Dahil ikaw ay Romeo, ako ay isang pulang sulat
At sinabi ng aking tatay, "Lumayo ka kay Juliet"
Ngunit ikaw ang lahat sa akin
Ako ay nagmamakaawa sa iyo, "Mangyaring huwag pumunta," at sinabi ko
[Koro]
Romeo, dalhin mo ako sa kung saan tayo maaaring mag-isa
Maghihintay ako, ang natitira lang gawin ay ang pagtakbo
Ikaw ang magiging prinsipe at ako ang magiging prinsesa
Kwento ng pag-ibig, baby, sabihin mo lang na "Oo"
Romeo, iligtas mo ako, sinusubukan nilang sabihin sa akin ang maramdaman
Itong pagmamahal ay mahirap pero totoo ito
Huwag matakot, gagawin namin ito mula sa gulo na ito
Kwento ng pag-ibig, baby, sabihin mo lang na "Oo"
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh
[Tulay]
At nagsawa na akong maghintay
Nagtataka kung darating ka pa ba
Ang aking pananalig sa iyo ay kumukupas
Nang makilala kita sa labas ng bayan
[Koro]
At sinabi ko, "Romeo, iligtas mo ako, naramdaman kong nag-iisa ako
Patuloy akong naghihintay sa iyo, ngunit hindi ka kailanman dumating
Nasa isip ko ba to? Hindi ko alam kung anong iisipin ko "
Lumuhod siya sa lupa at naglabas ng singsing, at sinabi
Pakasalan mo ako, Juliet, hindi ka na kailanman mag-iisa
Mahal kita at yun lang talaga ang alam ko
Kinausap ko ang tatay mo, pumili ka ng puting damit
Ito ay isang love story, baby, sabihin mo lang na 'Oo'
[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Dahil sa pareho kaming bata noong una kitang makita
