VERSE (ROMEO): You caught my eye. You smiled ever so shlyly at me. It's like I was underneath some kind of spell in your presence, but I felt as though something wasn't right inside. You look familiar, and I don't know why. VERSE (JULIET): You're Montague. I swore I knew your sweet face from somewhere. How can we overcome what our families forbid? We will find a way to tread together in time. I love you too much to not even try. CHORUS: If I am forbidden to love you, then I am verboten to live. If I am forbidden to caress your cheek, then I have nothing left to give. Oh, I'm locked up inside and I don't hold the key to the door that leads me from this insanity. No one can hear my plea. I swear you belong with me. BRIDGE JULIET: Take this message, take this letter, see it reaches Romeo. I've got a plan. We'll embrace all through the night again. (2x) BRIDGE ROMEO: Juliet, sweet Juliet, I crave to feel your skin. I cannot choose my family, but to love you I can. (2x) CHORUS: If I am forbidden to love you, then I am verboten to live. If I am forbidden to caress your cheek, then I have nothing left to give. Oh, I'm locked up inside and I don't hold the key to the door that leads me from this insanity. No one can hear our plea. JULIET: I swear he belongs with... ROMEO: I swear she belongs with... BOTH: me.
