Romeo And Juliet Lyrics - On The Night - Dire Straits

A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade 

Laying everybody low with a love song that he made 

Finds a street light, steps out of the shade 

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

Juliet says, "Hey 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, the dice was loaded from the start 

And I bet, then you exploded in my heart 

And I forget, I forget, the movie song 

When you gonna realize, it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet? 

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 if 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 yeah 

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 the 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'll do anything for you 

I can't do anything 'cept 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, the bad company 

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

Julie, I'd do the stars with you, anytime

Ah 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? 

And a lovestruck Romeo he sings the streets a serenade 

Laying everybody low, with a love song that he made 

Find a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade 

And says something like, "You and me babe, how 'bout it?" 

"You and me babe, how about it?"
