Dire Straits - Romeo and juliet - live at hammersmith odeon, london/1983 lyrics

A lovestruck Romeo, sings the streetside serenade 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 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 and 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 dream 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 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'd do anything for you 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, the bad company And all I do is kiss you, through the bars of a rhyme Juliet, I'd do the stars with you any time 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 streetside serenade Laying everybody low with a love song that he made Finds a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade He says something like, You and me, babe, how about it? You and me, babe, how about it?
