the killers
romeo and juliet
A love struck Romeo, sings the streets a serenade, Laying everybody low, with a love song that he made Finds a street light, 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 heartattack' He's underneath the window, she's singing, 'Hey now, my boyfriend's back You shouldn't come around here, singing up to people like that' Anyway, what you gonna do about it? Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start, And I bet, then you exploded into 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 talks, 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'll do anything for you I can't do anything 'cept 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 bad company And all I do is kiss you, through the bars of a rhyme Juliet I'd do the stars with you, anytime Ah 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? And a love struck Romeo, sings the streets a serenade, Laying everybody low, with a love song that he made Finds a convenient street light, steps out of the shade Says something like, 'You and me babe, how about it?' 'You and me babe, how about it?'
