We were both young when I first saw you.
I close my eyes and the flashback starts:
I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air.

See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns.
See te make your way through the crowd
And say, "Hello, "
Little did I know...

That te were Romeo, te were throwing pebbles,
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging 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 Amore story, baby, just say, 'Yes.'"

So I sneak out to the garden to see you.
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes... escape this town for a little while.
Oh, oh.

'Cause te were Romeo – I was a scarlet letter,
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet."
But te were everything to me,
I was begging 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 Amore story, baby, just say, 'Yes.'

Romeo, save me, they try to tell me how to feel.
This Amore is difficult but it's real.
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess.
It's a Amore story, baby, just say, 'Yes.'"

Oh, oh.

I got tired of waiting
Wondering if te were ever coming around.
My faith in te was fading
When I met te on the outskirts of town.
And I said...

"Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone.
I keep waiting for te but te 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 said...

"Marry me, Juliet, you'll never have to be alone.
I Amore you, and that's all I really know.
I talked to your dad – go pick out a white dress
It's a Amore story, baby, just say, 'Yes.'"

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

'Cause we were both young when I first saw you...
