Romeo And Juliet - Live At Hammersmith Odeon, London / 1983 / Remastered 2023

So your lovestruck Romeo has got a street serenade

Laying everybody low with a love song that he made

And he finds a streetlight, and he steps out of the shade

He says something like, "You and me, babe, how about it?"

Juliet says, "Goodness me, it's Romeo, you nearly gave 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, thе dice was loaded from the start

And I bеt, and you exploded in my heart

And I forget, I forget the movie song

And when you gonna realise

It was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

Juliet

Now we come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame

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

And I dreamed your dream for you, so now your dream is real

How can you look at me as if I'm 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, yeah, 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," you said, "I'll love you 'til I die"

And there's a place for us, you know the movie song

So when you gonna realize

It was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

I can't do the talks, no, like they talkin' on the 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, the way we used to be

All I do is keep the beat and welcome home company

And all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme

Juliet, I'd do the stars with you anytime

Juliet, when we made love you used to cry

You said, "I love you like the stars above," you said, "I'll love you 'til I die"

And there's a place for us, you know the movie song

So when you gonna realise

It was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

So Romeo's got a street serenade

Laying everybody low with a love song that he made

He finds a streetlight, he steps out of the shade

He says something like, "You and me, babe, how about it?"

Yeah, you and me, babe

Said, "How about it?"
