Love Story – Conan Gray

We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts, I’m standin’ there
On a balcony in summer air
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd and say hello
Little did I know
That you were Romeo, you were throwin’ pebbles
And my daddy said, stay away from Juliet
And I was cryin’ on the staircase
Beggin’ you, please, don’t go
And I said

Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I’ll be waitin’, 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
Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said, stay away from Juliet
But you were 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 waitin’, 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

I got tired of waiting
Wonderin’ if you were ever comin’ around
My faith in you was 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

Cause we were both young when I first saw you
