Dire Straits
Lyrics
Romeo And Juliet
A love struck romeo sings a streeters
serenade
Laying everybody low with me a love
song that he made
Finds a convenient streetlight steps
out of the shade
Says something like you and me
babe how about it ?
Juliet says hey its romeo you nearly
gimme a heart attack
Hes underneath the window shes
singing hey la my boyfriends back
You shouldn't come around here
singing up at people like that
Anyway what you gonna do about it ?
Juliet the dice were loaded from the
start
And I bet and you exploded in my
heart
And I forget the movie song
When you wanna realise 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 your dream is real
How can you look at me as if I was
just another one of your deals ?
Where 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 think and thin
Now you just says 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 Ill love you till I die
Theres a place for us you know the
movie song
When you gonna realise it was just
that the time was wrong Juliet ?
I cant do the talk like they talk on TV
And I cant do a love song like the
way its meant to be
I cant do everything but Id do
anything for you
I cant do anything except be in love
with you
And all I do is miss you and the way
we used to be
All do is keep the beat and bad
company
All I do is kiss you through the bars of
a rhyme
Julie Id 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 Ill love you till I die
Theres a place for us you know the
movie song
When you gonna realise it was just
that the time was wrong Juliet ?
A love struck romeo sings a streeters
serenade
Laying everybody low with me a love
song that he made
Finds a convenient streetlight steps
out of the shade
Says something like you and me
babe how about it ?
