I was riding shotgun with my hair undone in the front seat of his car He's got a one-hand feel on the steering wheel The other on my heart I look around, turn the radio down He says baby is something wrong? I say "nothing, I was just thinking how we don't have a song" And he said...
"Our song is a slamming screen door, Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window When we're on the phone and you talk real slow Cause it's late and your mama don't know Our song is the way you laugh The first date "man, I didn't kiss her, when I should have" And when I got home... fore' I said amen Asking God if He could play it again"
I was walking up the front porch steps after everything that day Had gone all wrong 'n' been trampled on And lost and thrown away Got to the hallway, well on my way to my lovin' bed I almost didn't notice all the roses And the note that said...
Our song is a slamming screen door, Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window When we're on the phone and you talk real slow Cause it's late and your mama don't know Our song is the way you laugh The first date "man, I didn't kiss her, when I should have" And when I got home... fore' I said amen Asking God if He could play it again
I've heard every album, listened to the radio Waiting for something to come along That was as good as our song...
Cause our song is a slamming screen door Sneaking out late, tapping on his window When we're on the phone and he talks real slow Cause it's late and his mama don't know Our song is the way he laughs The first date "man, I didn't kiss him, when I should have" And when I got home, fore' I said amen Asking God if He could play it again Play it again... Oh Yeah
I was riding shotgun with my hair undone In the front seat of his car I grabbed a pen and an old napkin And I wrote down our song
Check yes Juliet Are you with me? Rain is falling down on the sidewalk I won't go until you come outside.
Check yes Juliet Kill the limbo I'll keep tossing rocks at your window There's no turning back for us tonight.
Lace up your shoes Eh Oh Eh Ohhh Here's how we do:
Run, baby, run Don't ever look back. They'll tear us apart If you give them the chance. Don't sell your heart. Don't say we're not meant to be. Run, baby, run. Forever will be You and me.
Check yes Juliet I'll be waiting Wishing, wanting Yours for the taking. Just sneak out And don't tell a soul goodbye. Check yes Juliet Here's the countdown 3... 2... 1... now fall in my arms now They can change the locks Don't let them change your mind
Lace up your shoes Eh Oh Eh Ohhh Here's how we do
Run, baby, run Don't ever look back They'll tear us apart If you give them the chance Don't sell your heart Don't say we're not meant to be Run baby run Forever will be You and me
We're flying through the night We're flying through the night Way up high, The view from here is getting better with You by my side
Run baby run Don't ever look back They'll tear us apart If you give them the chance Don't sell your heart Don't say we're not meant to be Run baby run Forever will be...
Run baby run Don't ever look back They'll tear us apart If you give them the chance Don't sell your heart Don't say we're not meant to be Run baby run Forever will be You and me You and me You and me
We were both young when I first saw you I closed 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 I see you make your way through the crowd And say hello Little did I know
That you were Romeo, you 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 there's left to do is run You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess It's a love 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 you were Romeo, I was the scarlet letter And my daddy said, "stay away from Juliet" But you were my 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 there's left to do is run You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess It's a love story Baby, just say yes
Romeo, save me They try to tell me how I feel This love is difficult, but it's real Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess It's a love story Baby, just say yes
Oh oh
I got tired of waiting Wondering if you were ever coming around My faith in you is fading When I met you on the outskirts of town And I said
Romeo, save me I've been feeling so alone I keep waiting for you, but you 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 love you and that's all I really know I talked to your dad Go pick out a white dress It's a love story Baby, just say yes
This is the number one song on my fav list right now heh. It's about the love story that everyone knows about, or rather pretty much everyone in the literature world; yup it's Romeo & Juliet's story just that i prefer Taylor's version of the ending which is just absolutely sweet and touching despite it being just a song and all. While i was searching for these lyrics online i found that ppl hav posted comments that especially the last part of this song made them a bit teary (or a lot heh ;) ) Well i have to agree with them on this, while i was listening to this song for the first few times trying 2 catch the lyrics and it was then that i realised what Taylor was singing and well it really made my eyes fill with tears because it's the perfect ending that pretty much every girl in this world would wish for: a perfect ending where her prince charming would sweep her off her feet and all obstacles in their path would crumble away and well, just live happily ever after. :)
haha it's those times when you hear a song for a first time, trying to focus and catch wat the song is about which is quite a fun thing to do at times :) of coz tt's preferably when you've a lot of free time which at present i don't coz well actually i'm having my math paper tmr and to be honest i'm not that confident at all but here i am (wasting time :s ) blogging abt this absolutely fabulous song that has got me hooked :) . Aww the perfect love story is wat everyone envisions themselves in but is well, a fairytale, not reality coz well it's not possible to have such a flawless relationship as kinks have to be worked out and jigsaw pieces modified to fit together n stuff .. haha sounds so weird and abstract..
hmm seems lyk i typed too much, argh must not waste precious time that i still need 2 make myself more confident before tmr's paper... but i still hav loads 2 say! One of them is that i think Taylor looks absolutely gorgeous in her music video! I so love her gown (the one she's wearing while singing).. oh it just stimulates my creativity in designing clothes that i lyk again heh ;) haha nvm, perhaps another time....
