A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
He's laying everybody low
He's got a love song that he made
He finds a convenient street light
Then he steps out of the shande and says something like,
"You and me, Babe, how about it?"

Juliet says, "Hey it's Romeo.
He nearly gave me a heart attack
Yeah, well, he's underneath my window."
Now she's singing, "Hey, la, my boyfriend's back"
"You shouldn't come around here
Singing up at people like that.
Oh, anyway, what you gonna do about it?"

Juliet, the dice were loaded from the start
And I bet, and you exploded into my heart
And I forget, I forget the movie song
When you gonna realize
It was just that the time was wrong
Juliet

We both come up on different streets
And they were both the streets of shame
You know they're both dirty, both mean
Yes and even the dreams were the same
Well I dreamed your dream for you
And now your dream is real
So tell me, honey, how can you look at me
As if I was just another one of your deals?
Now you can fall for chains of silver
And you can fall for chains of gold
You know you fall for pretty strangers
And the promises they hold
Well, you promised me everything
And then you promised me thick and thin,
And now you just turn away and say,
"Romeo?  I think I used to have a scene with him."

Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
You said, "I love you like the stars above
Gonna love you till I die"
There's a place for us
I know you know this song
Now when you gonna realize, it was just that the time was wrong
Juliet, I'm so in love, so in love

But I can't do the talk
Like they talk on my tv screen
And I can't do a love song
Not the way you sang it to me
Can't do anything, but I would do anything for you
I can't do anything except be in love with you
All I do is miss you and the way it used to be
And all I do is keep the beat
I keep bad, bad company
And all I do is kiss you through the bars of this rhyme
When Juliet, I'd do the stars with you anytime

Oh, Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
You said, "I love you like the stars above
I'm gonna love you till I die"
There's a place for us
I know you know the movie song
One day we're gonna realize, it was just that the time was wrong
Juliet, Juliet, Juliet

This lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
He's laying everybody low
He's got a love song that he made
He finds a convenient street light
Then he'll, he'll step out of the shade and he'll say something like,
"You and me, Babe, how about it?"
