Taylor Swift’s Love Story became quite popular soon after its release. Read full lyrics below
Verse 1
- 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

Pre-Chorus
- 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
Chorus
- 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”
Verse 2
- 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, oh, oh
Pre-Chorus
- ‘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
Chorus
- 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 trying 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”
Post-Chorus
- Oh, oh
Bridge
- I got tired of waiting
- Wondering if you were ever coming around
- My faith in you was fading
- When I met you on the outskirts of town
Breakdown
- 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
Chorus
- “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'”
Outro
- Oh, oh, oh
- Oh, oh, oh
