Love Story by Taylor Swift

We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And 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 there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story, baby, just say yes

So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes, escape this town for a little while

Oh, oh, oh

'Cause you were Romeo,
I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
But you were everything to me
I was begging you please don't go

And I said
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story, baby, just say yes

Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it's real
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story, baby, just say yes

I got tired of waiting, wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When 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 knelt to the ground and he pulled out a ring
And said

Marry me, Juliet, you'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It's a love story, baby, just say yes


Oh, oh, oh, oh

We were both young when I first saw you



this could have been my love story. unfortunately, the last piece of the puzzle didn't fit in. or more like i would not have wanted it to fit in, because by wanting so i would have ruined another puzzle set. and that i would not have wanted such an ugly, two-faced kind of feeling to consume such a nice person. and lastly, he doesn't deserve such a mess.

being able to reminisce in anawangin, i felt lonely for my plight. i never thought i'd feel such regret. there were so many what ifs that ran through my mind it made me cry (as the skies were crying...). i was saddened by sad endings, and even more saddened by happy ones. *he knelt to the ground...*

will i ever find such pure, contented love again? :(

having cried for such a reason, i suddenly realized that there were much worthier people to cry for--much worthier than some stupid ass who made it quite vague (or clear) that he's not as loyal as he made me think. how foolish of me to cry for such things.

this one is quite difficult, but it's real... i hope i make it out of this mess.
