Love Story - Marcela Mangabeira

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

I 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

That you were Romeo

You were throwing pebbles

'Till my daddy said

Stay away from Juliet

And I was crying on the staircase

Beggin' you

Please don’t go

And I said

Romeo take me

Somewhere we can be alone I’ll be waiting

All that’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 were dead if they knew So close your eyes

Escape this town for a little while

Cause you were

Romeo I was a Scarlett Letter And my daddy said

Stay away from Juliet

But you were everything to me And I was beggin' you

Please don’t go

And I said Romeo take me Somewhere we can be alone I’ll be waiting

All that’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 I got tired of waiting Wonderin' if you were ever comin' 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 feelin' 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 says Marry me Juliet

You 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 oh

Cause we were both young When I first saw you
