I love this song. I cried listening to this song.
____________________________________________________________
This is a song I wrote when I was dating a guy who wasn't exactly the popular choice. His situation was a little complicated, but I didn't care. I started this song with the line "This love is difficult, but it's real." When I wrote the ending to this song, I felt like it was the ending every girl wants to go with her love story. It's the ending that I want. You want a guy who doesn't care what anyone thinks, what anyone says. He just says, "Marry me, Juliet, I love you, and that's all I really know." It's sort of told in a character kind of thing, where it's Romeo and Juliet, and it's not me saying that I'm getting married or anything...but I think it's fun to write about it. -Taylor Alison Swift
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We were both young when I first saw youI close my eyes
And the flashback starts
I'm standing there
On a balcony in summer air
She's looking back on the love story she's about to tell...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------See the lights
See the party, the ball gowns
I see you make your way through the crowd
And say hello, little did I know
They met in a crowd of people at a party, much like Romeo and Juliet in the Shakespeare play.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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
He was throwing pebbles at her window to get her to come see him, but like the Romeo and Juliet story, her parents didn't approve of him.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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
She wants to go away from everyone where they can be together in love.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'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
The Scarlet Letter is a story in which the main character has to wear a red letter "A" to signify that she committed adultery. Maybe Taylor is saying she's doing something bad / against her parents' wishes by going with her Romeo.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's a love story baby just say yes
Romeo save me, they try 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
Her family still doesn't approve of Romeo! Poor Taylor, she feels like she's being pulled in two different directions but the love she feels is true.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Oh oh
I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you is fading
Their contact and time together began to dwindle, and she was wondering why, so she met up with him.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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 ( I cried here )
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
She thought he was being really distant...but it turns out he was just planning on proposing to her!
