Romeo Songtext

von Patti Scialfa

Standing at your doorstep darlin'
What can I do
You're a part of me forever
Like a troublesome tattoo
I lay awake at night
Curse your name into the dark
While the memory of you rings
Like a church bell through my heart
Then a cold rain starts to fall

Oh Romeo
Remember how we'd listen to the radio
When the girls sang
?baby baby you know it's true
Ain't no one in this world for me but you?

Now I'm a believer darlin'
I believe in heaven above
And when I look in your eyes
I believe I still see love
Well maybe I will never know
Just why you walked away
Did you think I wasn't good enough
Or were you just afraid
Of the cold rain that's fallen
All around us now

Oh Romeo?

Now I'm living here in Chelsea
In somebody else's arms
Got a ring around my finger
Diamond snake around my arm
Don't know if he knows
About you darlin'
I don't even care
Sometimes he pretend to reach for me
And I pretend I'm there
While that cold rain
Has fallen all around us now
Listen

Oh Romeo
Remember how we'd listen to the radio
When the girls sang
?baby baby you know it's true
Ain't no one in this world for me but you?
Well there is no one
