My Sassy Mind

we were both young when i first saw you
i close my eyes and the flashback starts
im standing there on a balcony of summer air

see the lights, see the party the ball gowns
i see you make your way through the crowd
you 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 theres left to do is run
you'll be the prince and i'll be the princess
its a love story baby just say yes

so i sneak out to the garden to see you
we keep quite because we're dead if they know
so close your eyes
lets keep this down for a little while
cause you were romeo i was a scarlet letter
and my daddy said stay away from juliet
but you were everything to me
and i was begging you please don't go and i said

romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
i'll be waiting all theres left to do is run
you be the prince i'll be the princess
its a love story baby just say yes

romeo save me, try to tell me how it is
this love is difficult, but its real,
save me from the breakdown,
make it out of looseness
its a love story baby just say yes, oh,

i got to thinking if you were ever around
my faith in you runs
then 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 fell to the ground and pulled out a ring

marry me juliet you'll never have to be alone
i love you and thats all you know
i talked to your dad and you'll pick the white dress
its a love story baby just say yes
oh, oh, yes
we were still young when i first saw you

It's just a sad picture
The final blow hits you
Somebody else gets
What you wanted
You know
It's all the same
Another time and place
Repeating history
Just another episode

But I believe
In whatever you do
And I'll do anything
To see it through

Chorus:
Because these things
Will change
We can see it now
These walls
That they put up
To hold us back
Will fall down
It's a revolution
It's how we'll become
Who we're
Supposed to be
We'll sing hallelujah
We'll sing hallelujah
Oh

So you've been
Out numbered
When you've been
Out cornered
It's time to find
What you're
Fighting for

You're getting
Stronger now
From things
They never found
They might be better
But we're faster
And never scared

We've got the ways
That we can beat this
There's something
In your eyes
Says we can beat this

Chorus:
Because these things
Will change
We can see it now
These walls
That they put up
To hold us back
Will fall down
It's a revolution
It's how we'll become
Who we're
Supposed to be
We'll sing hallelujah
We'll sing hallelujah
Oh

Tonight we're
Standing on our feet
To fight
For what we worked
For all these years
The battle of long
It's the fight
Of our lives
We'll stand up
Champions one
And it's the night
We changed
We can see it now
When the walls
That they put up
To hold us
Back fell down
Coz it's a revolution
Throw your hands up
Coz we never give in
We'll sing hallelujah
We'll sing hallelujah
Hallelujah
