Berikut adalah lirik lagu "Love Story" milik Taylor Swift.

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

I see the lights; see the party, the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You 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, because we're dead if they knew

So close your eyes..escape this town for a little while.

Oh, Oh.

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 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

Oh, Oh

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

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, Oh, Oh, Oh

‘cause we were both young when I first saw you
