Dire Straits - Romeo And Juliet

A lovestruck Romeo sings a streetsuss serenade
Laying everybody low, with a lovesong 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 at people like that
Anyway what you gonna do about it

Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start
And I bet, and you exploded in 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 both were streets of shame
Both dirty, both mean, yes, and the dream, 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 till 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 they talk on the TV
And I can't do a love song, like the way it's meant to be
I can't do everything, but I'd do anything for you
I can't do anything, except 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 the band company
All I do is kiss you, through the bars of a rhyme
Juliet, I'd do the stars for 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 till I die
And there's a place, for us, you know the movie song
When you gonna realize
It was just that the time was wrong, Juliet

A lovestruck Romeo sings a streetsuss serenade
Laying everybody low with a lovesong, that he made
Finds a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade
Says something like, you and me babe, how about it
