Love Story by Taylor Swift

Love Story by Taylor Swift

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

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh

'Cause we were both young when I first saw you

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....
