Romeo lyrics

I studied Shakespeare when I was at school,

thought Romeo was a pet.

Felt if I'd met him I'd act like a fool

I'd be a poor Juliet.

Now that I know him I'm not really sure:

Boy, you're as charming as he.

Saying the same thing to all the girls

or is it just to me?

Romeo - why am I so in love with you?

Romeo - is it you or the things you do?

I've been yours from the moment you said hello.

Are you mine, or just only my Romeo?

I studied Shakespeare when I was at school,

thought Romeo was a joy.

I liked the true way he loved Juliet,

just my ideal of a boy!

You know I like you as my Romeo,

that's how I want you to be.

But if you're out on some other date,

can you be true to me?

Romeo - why am I so in love with you?

Romeo - is it you or the things you do?

I've been yours from the moment you said hello.

Are you mine, or just only my Romeo?
