 Words & Music: Mark Knopfler
A love struck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
He's laying everybody low
He's got a love song that he made
He finds a convenient streetlight and he steps out of the shade
And says something like
"You and me, babe, how about it?"
Juliet says, "Hey, it's Romeo!
You nearly gave me a heart attack"
Yeah well, he's underneath the window now she's singing,
"Hey, la, my boyfriend's back
You shouldn't come around here singing up to people like that"
Oh anyway whatcha gonna do about it?
Juliet
The dice were loaded from the start
And I bet and you exploded into my heart
And I forgit, I forget the movie song
Now when you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong
Julie
We both come up on different streets
And they both were streets of shame
Both dirty both mean
Yes and even the dreams were the same
Well I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real
So tell me honey
Now how can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals
Now you can fall for chains of silver
And you can fall for chains of gold
You fall for pretty strangers
And the promises they hold
Well you promised me everything and then you promised me thick and thin
But now you just turn away and you say,
"Romeo, I think I used to have a scene with him
Oh Juliet
When we made love you used to cry
You said "I love you like the stars above
Gonna love you till I die"
There's a place for us I know you know this song
Now when you gonna realize
It was just that the time was wrong
Julie
I'm so in love
But I can't do the talk like they talk on my TV screen
I can't do a love song not the way you sung it to me
I can't do everything but I would do anything for you
Ah no I can't do anything except be in love with you...yeah
Now all I do is miss you
And the way it used to be
And all I do is keep the beat
I keep bad, bad company
And all I do is kiss you
Through the bars of this rhyme
When Julie, I'd do the stars with you
Anytime
Oh Juliet
When we made love I used to cry
I said I'll love you like the stars above
I'm gonna love you till I die
There's a place for us
I know you know the movie song
One day we're gonna realize
It was just that the time was wrong
Julie
Julie
Julie
Now this love struck Romeo he sings the streets a serenade
He's laying everybody low he's got a love song that he made
And he finds a convenient streetlight and he'll step out of the shade and he'll
say something like
"You and me, babe, how about it?"
