Riska Amelia

We were both young when I first saw you.
I close my eyes and the flashback starts:
I'm standing 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 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 that'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.
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 that'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 try 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 knelts 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...

Say your sorry
That face of an angel comes out
Just when you need it to
As I paced back and forth
All this time cause
I honestly believed in you
Holding on, the days drag on
Stupid girl
I should have known, I should have known

[Chorus]
That I’m not a princess
This aint a fairytale
I’m not the one
You’ll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain’t Hollywood
This is a small town
I was a dreamer before
You went and let me down
Now it’s too late for you
And your white horse to come around

Maybe I was naïve, got lost in your eyes
And never really had a chance
My mistake, I didn’t know to be in love
You had to fight to have the upper hand
I had so many dreams about you and me
Happy endings now I know

[Chorus]
That I’m not a princess
This aint a fairytale
I’m not the one
You’ll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain’t Hollywood
This is a small town
I was a dreamer before
You went and let me down
Now it’s too late for you
And your white horse to come around

And there you are on your knees
Begging for forgiveness, begging for me
Just like I always wanted but I’m so sorry

’Cause I’m not your princess
This ain’t a fairytale
I’m gonna find someone someday
Who might actually treat me well
This is a big world
That was a small town
There in my rear view mirror
Disappearing now
And it’s too late for
You and your white horse
Now it’s too late for
You and your white horse
To catch me now

Oh,Oh,Oh,
Try and catch me now ohh
It’s too late
To catch me now

There’s nothing I could say to you

You can do it
