This is story about a boy and girl

Trying find a life in the big world

Somehow they''re together

There ain''t much to the mystery

Misery loves company

She just waves her hand and says whatever

Well this ain''t love this ain''t love this ain''t love at all

And he says...

We''re not Romeo we''re not Juliet

Hw long does it take to fill this emptyness

We''re just two lost souls and baby we got no regrets

We don''t wanna say bye-bye

Babe it''s just you and I

We''re not Romeo we''re not Juliet

He ain''t pretty with his hard old heart

Second generation immigrant scars

And he knows that this ain''t heaven - no

She''s all skinny like a cigarette

And he''s the only thing - the only thing that she respects

And he''s trying to make it better

This ain''t love this ain''t love this ain''t love at all

And she says...

We''re not Romeo - not Juliet

You''d thought you''d seen it all - but you ain''t seen nothin'' yet

We''re just two lost souls and baby we got no regrets

Now it''s just you and I

We''re nothin'' unless we try

We''re not Romeo - not Juliet

It has feel right but it never does

It has to be perfect but it never is

You wanna be sure but you never do

We''re not Romeo or Juliet - it''s just me and you

Ya it''s just you and I

We''re nothin'' unless we try - oh no

We''re not Romeo - not Juliet

No we''re not - that''s a fact
