Indigo Girls - Romeo & Juliet Lyrics
A love struck romeoSings the streets a serenadeNow hes laying everybody lowHes got a love song that he madeHe finds a streetlightAnd he steps out of the shadeAnd says something likeYou and me, babe, how about it?Juliet says hey, its romeo!You nearly give me a heart attack!Yeah well, hes underneath the windowNow shes singing hey-la, my boyfriends backYou shouldnt come around hereSinging up at people like thatAh anyway, whatcha gonna do about it?JulietThe dice were loaded from the startAnd I bet and you exploded into my heartAnd I forget, I forget the movie songWhen you gonna realizeIt was just that the time was wrongJulieWe both come up on different streetsAnd they both were streets of shameYou know theyre both dirty both meanYes and the dreams were the sameAnd I dreamed your dream for youAnd now your dream is realSo tell me honeyNow how can you look at meAs if I was just another one of your dealsNow you can fall for chains of silverAnd you can fall for chains of goldYou know you fall for pretty strangersAnd the promises they holdWell you promised me everythingAnd then you promised me thick and thinNow you just turn away and sayRomeo, I think I used to have a scene with him.Ah julietWhen we made love you used to cryYou said I love you like the stars aboveGonna love you till I dieTheres a place for usI you know this songNow when you gonna realizeIt was just that the time was wrongJulieBut I cant do the talks like they talk on my tv screenI cant do a love song not the way you song them to meI cant do everything but I would do anything for youOh no I cant do anything except be in love with youYeah now and all I do is miss youAnd the way it used to be you knowAnd all I do is keep the beatI keep bad, bad companyAnd all I do is kiss youThrough the bars of a rhymeWhen julie Id do the stars with youAnytimeAh julietWhen we made love you used to cryYou said I love you like the stars aboveIm gonna love you till I dieTheres a place for usI know you know the movie songOne day were gonna realizeIt was just that the time was wrongJulieJulieJulieNow this love struck romeoHe sings the streets a serenadeNow hes laying everybody lowHes got a love song he madeHe finds a convenient streetlightAnd hell step out of the shadeAnd hell say something likeYou and me, babe, how bout it?
