Dire Straits - Romeo And Juliet
A love-struck Romeo
|
Sings the streets a serenade
|
Laying everybody low
|
With a love song that he made
|
Finds a streetlight
|
Steps out of the shade
|
Says something like
|
"You and me babe, how about it?"
|
Juliet says, "Hey, it's Romeo
|
You nearly gave me
|
A heart attack!"
|
He's underneath the window
|
She's singing
|
"Hey la, my boyfriend's back
|
You shouldn't come around here
|
Singing up to people like that
|
Anyway, what you gonna do
|
About it?"
|
Juliet, the dice was loaded
|
From the start
|
And I bet when you exploded
|
Into my heart
|
And I forget
|
I forget the movie song
|
When you gonna realize
|
It was just
|
That the time was wrong
|
Juliet?
|
Come up on different streets
|
They're both
|
The streets of shame
|
Both dirty, both mean
|
Yes in the dream
|
It was just the same
|
And I dreamed your dream for you
|
And now your dream is real
|
How can you look at me as
|
If I was just another
|
One of your deals?
|
When you can fall for chains
|
Of silver
|
You can fall for chains
|
Of gold
|
You can fall
|
For pretty strangers
|
And the promises they hold
|
You promised me everything
|
You promised me
|
Thick and thin, yeah
|
Now you just say, "Oh Romeo? Yeah
|
You know I used to have
|
A scene with him"
|
Juliet, when we made love
|
You used to cry
|
You said, "I love you like
|
The stars above
|
I'll love you 'til I die"
|
There's a place for us
|
You know the movie song
|
When you gonna realize
|
It was just
|
That the time was wrong
|
Juliet?
|
I can't do the talk
|
Like the talk on TV
|
And I can't do a love song
|
Like the way it's meant to be
|
I can't do everything
|
But I'll do anything for you
|
I can't do anything
|
'cept be in love with you!
|
And all I do is miss you
|
And the way we used to be
|
All I do is keep the beat
|
And bad company
|
Now all I do is kiss you
|
Through the bars of a rhyme
|
Juliet, I'd do the stars
|
With you any time!
|
Juliet, when we made love
|
You used to cry
|
You said, "I love you like
|
The stars above
|
I'll love you 'til I die"
|
There's a place for us
|
You know the movie song
|
When you gonna realize
|
It was just
|
That the time was wrong
|
Juliet?
|
And a love-struck Romeo
|
Sings a street-suss serenade
|
Laying everybody low
|
With a lovesong that he made
|
Finds a convenient streetlight
|
Steps out of the shade
|
He says something like
|
"You and me babe,
|
How about it?"
|
You and me babe, how about it?
