Taylor Swift- Love Story

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 crowdand say hello;
Little did I know

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,

"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.'

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.


'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,
"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 tryin' 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.'

Oh.

I got tired of waiting,
Wondering if you were ever comin' around.
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town.

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,


"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.'

Oh, oh.

We were both young when I first saw you...

So this song has been playing over & over again in my mind. It's one of my favourite songs now, Haha, as much as I hate to admit it, LOL.

there's a link for the official music video- very sweet! You should watch it (:

but yeah, that's not the only reason for posting this up. The thing is, this song reminds me of how God should be like our Romeo. In the song, it mentions how they sneak into the garden even though they would be dead if they were caught; in the same way, shouldn't we be THAT in love with God, that we are willing to do ANYTHING to meet Him? Just like Romeo && Juliet are SO in love, WE should be like that with our Lord, Jesus Christ. After all, He is SO much more amazing than Romeo.. LOL. Our love for Christ should be evident in our actions. (:

I'm speaking this to myself, too :P Anyway, York is still on strike, but I have a good feeling that it will end soon (: I have faith that God will answer my prayer soooon! (:

Have a great week!
God bless You :D
