Love Story

Valentines Day is very near, and you could feel the love in the air - couples kissing, hugging, walking while holding hands, exchanging of flowers and chocolates and all sorts of crap that these lovebirds do just to show there affection.

Radio's are already being bombarded by songs that tell about love *sweet love - sigh*. Ranking number four on RX 93.1 is a song by Taylor Swift entitled Love Story.

In a nutshell, the song talks about a couple blablabla who fell in love. *By the way, love = crap*

I'll pose the lyrics for the boy version of the song, even though it pains me just reading the lyrics.

We were both young when you first saw me.
You closed your eyes and the flashback starts:
You're standing there on a balcony in summer air.

I See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns.
And See me make my way through the crowd
to say hello;

Little did you know
That I was Romeo; and was throwing pebbles,
And your daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet."
And you were crying on the staircase,
begging me, 'Please, don't go.'"

And you 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 you sneak out to the garden to see me.
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew.
So close your eyes; escape this town for a little while.
'Cause I was Romeo, I you were a scarlet letter,
And your daddy said "Stay away from Juliet,"
But you were everything to me; I was begging you, 'Please, don't go,'"

And you 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 love story - baby just say "Yes.'"

Oh.

You got tired of waiting,
Wondering if I was ever comin' around.
Your faith in me was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town,

And you said,
"Romeo save me - I've been feeling so alone.
I keep waiting for you but you never come.
Is this in thy head? I don't know what to think-"

I 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...
