Romeo And Juliet Lyrics - Sultans Of Swing - Dire Straits & Mark Knopfler

A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets of serenade 

Laying everybody low with a love song that he made 

Finds a streetlight steps out of the shade 

Says something like you and me babe how about it? 

Juliet says hey it's Romeo you nearly gimme 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 were 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 they booth were streets of shame 

Both dirty both mean yes and the dream was just the same 

And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real 

How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals? 

When 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 

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 

You said I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die 

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 they talk on 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 

All I do is keep the beat and bad company 

All I do is kiss you through the bars of orion 

Julie I'd do the stars with you any time 

Juliet when we made love you used to cry 

You said I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die 

There's a place for us you know the movie song 

When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong Juliet? 

A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets of serenade 

Laying everybody low with a love song that he made 

Finds a convenient streetlight steps out of the shade 

Says something like you and me babe how about it?
