Love Story Lyrics - Taylor Swift

1 We were both young when I first saw you

2 I close my eyes and the flashback starts

3 I'm standing there

4 On the balcony in summer air

5 See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns

6 See you make your way through the crowd

7 And say, "Hello."

8 Little did I know

9 That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles

10 And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet!"

11 And I was crying on the staircase

12 Begging you, "Please don't go!"

13 And I said

14 Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone

15 I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run

16 You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess

17 It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes."

18 So I sneak out to the garden to see you

19 We keep quiet, 'cause we're dead if they knew

20 So close your eyes

21 Escape this town for a little while

22 Oh, oh

23 'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter

24 And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet!"

25 But you were everything to me

26 I was begging you, "Please don't go!"

27 And I said

28 Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone

29 I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run

30 You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess

31 It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes."

32 Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel

33 This love is difficult, but it's real

34 Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess

35 It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes."

36 Oh, oh

37 I got tired of waiting

38 Wondering if you were ever coming around

39 My faith in you was fading

40 When I met you on the outskirts of town

41 And I said

42 Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone

43 I keep waiting for you but you never come

44 Is this in my head, I don't know what to think

45 He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said

46 Marry me, Juliet, you'll never have to be alone

47 I love you, and that's all I really know

48 I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress

49 It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes."

50 Oh, oh

51 Oh, oh, oh

52 'Cause we were both young when I first saw you
