Romeo And Juliet Lyrics

The Killers

A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade Laying everybody low with a love song that he made He finds a 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” He’s underneath the window, she’s singing, “Hey la my boyfriend’s back You shouldn’t come around here singing up at people like that Anyway what you gonna do about it?”
Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start And I bet and you exploded in 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 and both were streets of shame Both dirty, both mean, yes, and the dream was just the same Then I dream your dream for you, now your dream is real How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?
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 I said I love you like the stars above, I’ll love you till I die And 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 talk 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’d 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 And all I do is keep the beat, the bad company And 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 I said I love you like the stars above, I’ll love you till I die And 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 lovestruck Romeo, sings the streets a serenade Laying everybody low with a love song that he made He finds a convenient streetlight and steps out of the shade And says something like, “You and me babe, how about it?”

Tell Us What These Lyrics Mean To You...

Michael LP

Les mots. The words. These words speak to me. These are lyrics, in the full meaning of that term: lyrical poetry. Memorable, fresh imagery like: "And all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme." Some wonderfully rhythmic lines, coupled with moving meaning, such as: "You can fall for chains of silver, / You can fall for chains of gold." Love found, then lost; love given, then torn away. But the heart that truly loves, still loves. The lyricist here is a true lover and a true poet. Melding with music. As with Pete Seeger, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, John Lennon, George Harrison, Paul McCartney, Paul Simon, Leonard Cohen, Neil Young, Harry Nilsson, Harry Chapin, Don McLean, and a long et cetera, so with this group: When poetry meets music, sound and sense merge into magic. Mortality is meliorated. When lyrics and music are made by feeling hearts and thinking minds, then the hearts and minds of others are enriched. --Michael LP
