Romeo

Lyrics

Walking yourself home again, reciting every rhyme But nowadays you're noticing each blossom fallen from the vine Like Romeo and Juliet Its death was by design No earthly force could ever stop me, no king upon his throne Throwing pebbles at your window was the hand that cast the first stone Like Romeo and Juliet When I'm in love I am alone I would place my fate, with a nod, in the hands of the Almighty God Before you're promised to a man that you don't give a damn And thе line we'd nevеr cross, we leapt recklessly across And took our chances there Where the game was never so fair, and I am done Tipped back to kiss that bottle's lip, blind to destiny It only takes a single sip of that fatal recipe But like Romeo and Juliet I drank once for you and once for me And life beyond the wall carries on like it's nothing at all No, you won't sway them with speech, for that family's deaf to peace By the time they let us be, in the tragedy of sleep The burden was theirs to bear Yeah the game was never so fair, and I am done
