Lyrics

[Verse 1] A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade Laying everybody low with a love song that he made He find a streetlight, he steps out of the shade He 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 at people like that Anyway, what you going to do about it?" [Chorus] Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start And I bet, when you exploded in my heart And I forget, I forget the movie song When you going to realize It was just that the time was wrong, Juliet? [Verse 2] Come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame Both dirty, both mean, yes, and the dream was just the same Then 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? 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" [Chorus] Juliet, when we made love, you used to cry I said, "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die" And there's a place for us, you know that movie song When you going to realize It was just that the time was wrong, Juliet? [Verse 3] I can't do the talk like the talk on the TV And I can't do a love song like the way it's meant to be I can't do everything, but I'd do anything for you I can't do anything except be in love with you And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be And all I do is keep the beat and the bad company And all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme Juliet, I'd do the stars with you anytime [Chorus] Juliet, when we made love, you used to cry I said, "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die" And there's a place for us, you know the movie song When you going to realize It was just that the time was wrong, Juliet? [Verse 4] A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade Laying everybody low with a love song that he made He find convenient streetlight, he steps out of the shade Says something like, "You and me, babe, how about it?"
