Romeo - Patti Scialfa

Standing at your doorstep darlin'

What can I do

You’re a part of me forever

Like a troublesome tattoo

I lay awake at night

Curse your name into the dark

While the memory of you rings

Like a church bell through my heart

Then a cold rain starts to fall

Oh Romeo

Remember how we’d listen to the radio

When the girls sang: «Baby baby you know it’s true

Ain’t no one in this world for me but you»

Now I’m a believer darlin'

I believe in heaven above

And when I look in your eyes

I believe I still see love

Well maybe I will never know

Just why you walked away

Did you think I wasn’t good enough

Or were you just afraid

Of the cold rain that’s fallin' all around us now

Oh Romeo

Remember how we’d listen to the radio

When the girls sang: «Baby baby you know it’s true

Ain’t no one in this world for me but you»

Now I’m living here in Chelsea

In somebody else’s arms

Got a ring around my finger

Diamond snake around my arm

Don’t know if he knows

About you darlin'

I don’t even care

Sometimes he pretend to reach for me

And I pretend I’m there

While that cold rain

Has fallen all around us now

Listen

Oh Romeo

Remember how we’d listen to the radio

When the girls sang: «Baby baby you know it’s true

Ain’t no one in this world for me but you»

Well there is no one
