Romeo Must Die lyrics

You used to write me letters

You'd send me records in the post

Like 'Born To Run', by Springsteen

You knew the songs I love the most

But with the sweetest sorrow

Told you some things just won't last

For you and I are passed our dancing days

I said it's not your fault, I lied

and I don't have time to watch you cry

And I'm thinking Romeo must die, ai, ai, ai, ai

I tried to treat you gently

I said I'd always be your friend

But now your hands are empty

You don't know how to let this end

So with the sweetest sorrow

Let me spell it out for you

For you and I are passed our dancing days

I said it's not your fault, I lied

I don't have time to watch you cry

And I'm thinking Romeo must die, ai, ai, ai, ai

Did you think I wouldn't notice

As if I wouldn't pass an eye

Did you think that you could hide it

All of your violent delights

[x2]

I said it's not your fault, I lied

I don't have time to watch you cry

And I'm thinking Romeo must die, ai, ai, ai, ai

[x2]
