We were both young, when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standing there, on a balcony of summer air
I 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, because 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 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 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're trying to tell me how to 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 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
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
'cause we were both young when I first saw you

Review about Love Story ha- duh. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/1/09
People are retarded. Haven't you ever heard of a metaphor?!? She's comparing this love story to 2 of the most famous love stories in literature in it's intensity. It's not meant to be taken literally. I'm sure she knows full well what happened in the famous novels. This one is a grand love story with a happy ending. Duh.
Seriously, lighten up | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/15/09
reading some of comments just makes me laugh. Dear all who wrote that Taylor is stupid not to realize that it's a tragedy. FYI: She does know the story, but she thought the end was too sad so she rewrote it as a happy ending. Stop being so pessss u guys! I listened to this song and thought how clever she is with the lyrics. How great would it be, if Romeo really hv enough courage to face Juliet's father and tell him how honestly and sincerely he loved Juliet. C'Mon, even it's the son of the enemy....and minus the poison and the fake death and things will just end happily.

bad song | Reviewer: Jim | 7/7/09
there are a lot of errors in this song, such as the fact that Romeo & Juliet is a tragedy and not a comedy. Personally I think Taylor Swift released this song with references to Romeo & Juliet because some people are too dumb to realize that Romeo and Juliet die in the end.
my parents are so over protective and to me are idiots....
I have(or had) a boyfriend and he means the world to me. We haven't talked for a while and i miss him sooo much! my parents won't let me talk to him anymore! it feels as if i will die if i can't talk to him anymore! so it rlly rlly rlly hurts....
like i said i miss him terribly...
my parents made a threat too...
they said if he tried to call me they would call the police. now i'm so alone
i hope one day he can read this review so he can see how much i love and miss him.
i love him to death and always will.
I absolutely adore this song. It's amazing. Can I point out that where you say 'star lit letter' that should be 'scarlet letter'. It's like, a thing from Victorian times. As a punishment for adultery and things, they were made to wear the scarlet letter, A. Kind of cool, if you ask me. I'd also like to add that Romeo and Juliet IS a love story. One of the oldest love stories ever written. It's just a very very tragic one. I adore that story so much. And the latest film is so amazing. Well, in conclusion - this song is great~! ^^<3
i love it!! | Reviewer: kacey=) | 4/27/09
ok when i first heard this song i fell in love with it!!! i never could stop listening to it!
but it's kind of pointless because 1.romoe and juliet both died and 2.a scarlet letter was worn by people who committed adultery in the olden days. but i still love it!!
whoot whoot!
It makes me think | Reviewer: Sweety | 4/16/09
Everytime I hear this very song, I think of my boyfriend and where it says 'we were both young when I first saw you, I close my eyes and the flashbacks start- I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air' I think back to yr 2 and I think of those feeelings when he said hello and I couldn't breathe. We both remembered that moment and talked about it. When I knew what he felt when he said hello, I couldn't speak because he pretty much felt the same way.
This song is the reminder when I met my Boyfriend and I will never for get it.
