Romeo and Juliet Lyrics
Artist(Band):Dire Straits
NARRATOR:
A love-struck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made.
Finds a streetlight, 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 heart attack!"
He's underneath the window she's singing "hey la, my boyfriend's back.
You shouldn't come around here singing up to people like that...
Anyway what you gonna do about it?"
ROMEO:
Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start
And I bet when 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, both the streets of shame.
Both dirty, both mean, yes in the dream it 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 'til I die".
There's a place for us, in all the movie songs.
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
I can't do the talks, like the 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, except 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, the band company.
Now all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme,
Juliet, I'd 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, I'll love you 'til I die".
There's a place for us, in all the movie songs.
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
NARRATOR:
A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
Laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made
Finds a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade
He says something like "you and me babe, how about it?"
ROMEO:
"You and me babe, how about it?"

Review about Romeo and Juliet
READ | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/8/2008seriously, the jonny walker version on asheville sessions '07, is the best song ive ever heard in my life, if anybody is reading this, go on myspace.com/johnnywalkermusic and buy the cd from him, BEST FIVE POUNDS i ever spent the man is incredible
English teacher who taught R&J to my students | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/12/2008
We read every word of the play together, watched the Zeffirelli, 1968 movie, and then the one with Leonardo and Claire Danes. Wish I'd known of this song, because it it ties the story all together, the drama, the movies, the music, the present. Best story I had the privilege to teach.
I love this song! | Reviewer: MArion | 1/22/2008
This song is awesome, it conveys so much emotion and it's so touching, I love it. It is deffinetly better than the killer's version - Brandon's voice ruins what this orignal version has like at the end when he goes " you and me babe, hwo about it?" . It's adorable. ♥
Amazing | Reviewer: Andrea92 | 1/12/2008
Maybe the best, under all the points of view, song I have ever heard, of course one of the best 5...
A little drop of love, magic and emotion in the everyday world.
The Killers verison ... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/17/2007
This is one of the top five best songs I have ever heard -- The Killers version is even better than the original. Brandon Flowers's voice fits perfectly with the lyrics and instrumentals

romeo and juliet | Reviewer: melanie connor | 9/13/2007
this song is amazing and it is incredible that it can hold such signifigance to so many different people. it applies to people both in and out of love, and can make you laugh and cry.
love this song! | Reviewer: sine-jade | 8/2/2007
this song is the most beautiful i have ever heard, it makes me both smile and cry and it describes exactly how i feel about my ex, S. i just really miss him but he doesnt feel the same way about me anymore :(
This was our love song (my ex's and mine) | Reviewer: Izzy | 7/30/2007
And I tell you this much--this song packs as much of an emotional punch now as it did back in 1990. It brings all of the emotions to the forefront.
