A love-struck Romeo sings the streets a serenade Laying everybody low with a love song that he made. Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade 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 to people like that... Anyway, what you gonna do about it?"
ROMEO: Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start And I bet when 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?
Come up on different streets, they're both the streets of shame. Both dirty, both mean, yes, in the dream it was just the same And 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?
When 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".
Juliet, when we made love, you used to cry. You said, "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die". There's a place for us, you know the movie song. When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
I can't do the talk, like the talk on TV And I can't do a love song, like the way it's meant to be. I can't do everything, but I'll do anything for you. I can't do anything, 'cept be in love with you! And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be. All I do is keep the beat... and bad company. Now all I do is kiss you through the bars of Orion, Juliet, I'd do the stars with you any time!
Juliet, when we made love you used to cry. You said, "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die". There's a place for us, you know the movie song. When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
NARRATOR: And a love-struck Romeo sings a street-suss serenade Laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made Finds a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade He says something like, "You and me babe, how about it?"
Are a home now for me But my home is the lowlands And always will be Some day you'll return to me Your valleys and your farms And you'll no longer burn To be brothers in arms
Through these fields of destruction Baptisms of fire I've witnessed all your suffering As the battle raged higher And though they did hurt me so bad In the fear and alarm You did not desert me My brothers in arms
There's so many different worlds So many different suns And we have just one world But we live in different ones
Now the sun's gone to hell And the moon's riding high Let me bid you farewell Every man has to die But it's written in the starlight And every line on your palm We're fools to make war On our brothers in arms
.... It's late in the evening She wonders what clothes to wear She puts on her make up And brushes her long blonde hair. And then she asked me Do I look alright? I said yes, you look wonderful tonight
We go to a party And everyone turns to see This beautiful woman walking around with me And then she asked me Do you feel alright? I said yes, I don't feel good I feel wonderful because I see No love light in your eyes And the wonder of it all Is that you just don't realize How much I love you.
It's time to go home now And I got a big headache So i give her the car keys She helps me to bed And then I told her As I turned out the lights I say my darling You were wonderful tonight Oh my darling, You were wonderful tonight
