Romeo And Juliette (Live) - Mark Knopfler
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 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 ya gonna do about it"
"Juliet the dice was loaded from the start
And I bet can you exploded into my heart
And I forget I forget
The movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong
Juliet"
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 and now your dream is real
How can you look at me as I was just another one of your deals
Well 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 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
And 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 the company
And all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme
Juliet I'd do the stars with you baby any time"
"Juliet when we made love you used to cry
You said I love you like the stars above I'll love you baby till I die
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"
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Finds a streetlight steps out of the shade
He says something like "You and me babe how about it"
