✦ Romeo and Juliet ✦ ✦ Info ✦ R&J Title Track Composed by: @JLee_Official (JLee) Voice by: @JLee_Official (JLee) ✦ Background ✦ I got the inspiration for this song one day when I was in English class. We'd just read Romeo and Juliet, and my teacher was talking about other things based on it, such as Taylor Swift's "Love Story". I was thinking to myself, "Isn't it bad to have your love story like Romeo and Juliet? Their's wasn't the greatest love story..." And from those thoughts the idea for this song was born. Maybe you want your love story to be perfect - but make it your own. Don't choose to be Romeo and Juliet. ✦ Comments ✦ I think this is one of my favorite songs in the album (rightfully so), alongside Inferno and Lightning. I remember being so excited when I first made the lyrics lol, it was a big day for me xD
✦ Lyrics ✦ Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy But we don’t have to be. We could be the fantasy They never got to see. So I’ll be Romeo, And you can be my Juliet And we’ll live happily. I remember the first day when Euphoria broke through The cracks in my wall that you carved away Waiting for you I could do everyday, You’re my everything babe I’m wishing on every star (every star) That you’ll be mine (you’ll be mine) Mine and mine only So let’s be Romeo and Juliet, A pair destined to be. Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy But we don’t have to be. We could be the fantasy They never got to see. Say yes and I’ll be yours Why do we hide away? Don’t we both agree We’re meant to be? Juliet, don't leave me behind. I’m wishing on every star (every star) That you’ll be mine (you’ll be mine) Mine and mine only So let’s be Romeo and Juliet A pair destined to be Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy But we don’t have to be. We could be the fantasy They never got to see. My Juliet, love, are you still mine? I sing for you but are you true? Have I overstepped, where do I stand? If only we could be more like before. Hey babe, don’t forget about me. Let’s forget our names and be free. Because I’m wishing on every star (every star) That you’ll be mine (you’ll be mine) Mine and mine only But when I look in your eyes All I see is our demise So, love Let’s not be Romeo and Juliet A pair destined to see Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy And I guess so are we. This is the fantasy We never got to see.
