A crush and a Love Story


Verse 1

I hung up the phone tonight,
something happened for the first time,
deep inside it was a rush, what a rush,
Cause the possibility that you would ever feel the same away about me,
it’s just too much, just too much
Why do I keep running from the truth, all I ever think about is you
You got me hypnotized, so mesmerized, and I just got to know

Chorus

Do you ever think, when you’re all alone,
all that we can be, where this thing can go,
Am I crazy or falling in love, is it real or just another crush
Do you catch a breath, when I look at you, are you holding back, like the way I do,
Cause I’m tryin’, tryin’ to walk away
But I know this crush aint’ goin’ away, goin’ away

Verse 2

Has it ever cross your mind when we’re hangin’, spending time girl,
are we just friends, is there more, is there more,
See it’s a chance we’ve gotta take, cause I believe that we can make this into something that will last,
last forever, forever

Chorus

Do you ever think, when you’re all alone,
all that we can be, where this thing can go,
Am I crazy or falling in love, is it real or just another crush
Do you catch a breath, when I look at you, are you holding back, like the way I do,
Cause I’m tryin’, tryin’ to walk away
But I know this crush aint’ goin’ away, goin’ away

Bridge

Why do I keep running from the truth, all I ever think about is you
You got me hypnotized, so mesmerized, and I just got to know

Chorus

Do you ever think, when you’re all alone,
all that we can be, where this thing can go,
Am I crazy or falling in love, is it real or just another crush
Do you catch a breath, when I look at you, are you holding back, like the way I do,
Cause I’m tryin’, tryin’ to walk away
But I know this crush aint’ goin’ away, goin’ away


This song is absurdly infectious!



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.
'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 tryin' 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 life story - baby just say "Yes.'"

Oh. I got tired of waiting, Wondering if you were ever comin' 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 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.
We were both young when I first saw you...
