We were both young when I first saw you...
I close my eyes and the flashback starts.
You are standing there, on a balcony in summer air.
See the lights, see the party, see the ball gowns...
Making my way through the crowd to say “Hello.”
Little did you know...
That I was your Romeo.
As I was kissing you, heard your father said “Stay away you are warned!”
It was hard to leave you crying on the staircase begging me not to go...
So I said...
Darling, I will take you somewhere we can be alone.
Just be patient, nothing left to do but run.
We will write the first fairytale with more than one prince.
It’s a love story, darling, just say “Yes.”
So you sneak out to the garden where I was hiding.
We keep quiet because we are dead if they find me.
So close your eyes...
Escape this town for a little while...
I was your Romeo and you were my destined pair.
Even my father said loving you was not worth it, but you were everything to me...
It was hard to leave you crying on the staircase begging me not to go...
So I said...
Darling, I will take you somewhere we can be alone.
Just be patient, nothing left to do but run.
We will write the first fairytale with more than one prince.
It’s a love story, darling, just say “Yes.”
Darling, don’t listen, they will try to tell you how to feel.
Don’t let them to come between us.
This love it’s difficult but it’s real.
Don’t be afraid, I will get you out of this mess.
It’s a love story, darling, just say “Yes.”
You got tired of waiting, wondering if I was ever coming around...
I swear I’m on my way...
I just had to work some things out.
I’m sure your faith in me was fading...
Then I finally met you on the outskirts of town.
Then I said...
Darling, I’m sorry, I hope you didn’t feel so alone.
Need you more than anything and I refuse to share you.
Saw it in his eyes.
He didn’t know what to think.
I knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring.
Then I said...
Marry me my love, you will never have to be alone.
I love you and that’s all I really know.
Don’t worry about our families and pick out a white suit.
It’s a love story, darling, just say “Yes.”
Cause we were both young when I first saw you...
