VERSE (chords like before)

Come upon different streets, and they're both the streets of shame
Both dirty both mean, and you're dream was just the same
And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real
so how can you look at me as if i just anotherone of your dreals

where you can fall for chains of silver and you can fall for chains of gold
you can fa-aall for pretty strangers, and the promisses they hold
you promissed you everything you promissed me thick and thin now just
turn around and say romeo yeah, you know i just to have a scene with him

CHORUS

Juliet when we made love you jused to cry
You said I love you like the stars above I'm gonna love you till i die
and i forget i forget the movie song
when you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong
Ju-uliet

VERSE

And I can't do the talk like the talk on the TV
And I can't do a lovesong the way it's meant to be
So all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme
Juliet I do the stars with you  any time

CHORUS

Juliet when we made love you jused to cry
You said I love you like the stars above I'm gonna love you till i die
Say there's a place for us 
the movie song
when you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong
Ju-u-u-u-liet
