Oh I didn’t live once upon a time 

And I can’t surpass Shakespeare’s rhymes

But I hope we can take the climb 

I think we have something great 

Maybe it was all truly fate 

Oh why did I wait? 


Could our liking grow to the extent 

Of an epic love story no one understands 

Can we reach the high end? 


Are we gonna be the next Romeo and Juliet?

The saxophone to my clarinet 

But right now we’re just taking things slow 

But will our relationship grow? 

Into Romeo and Juliet 

In it together till death 

Oh will you and I be

The next Romeo and Juliet 


Ah oh na na na na na na na x2


I think we have something great 

Maybe this was all truly fate 

Oh why did I wait? 

I haven’t read Shakespeare yet 

But they stay together in the end 

That’s all I really know 

So could our relationship grow? 

Into Romeo and Juliet 

In it together till death 

Oh will you and I be

The next Romeo and Juliet 


Ah oh na na na na na na na x2 


I never thought that they could end 

But everyone knows about their deaths 

Ah oh am I your Juliet? 

Ah oh are you my Romeo? 

Ah oh we’re just taking things slow 


Are we gonna be the next Romeo and Juliet 

The saxophone to my clarinet 

But right now we’re just taking things slow 

But will our relationship grow? 

Into Romeo and Juliet 

In it together till death 

Oh will you and I be 

The next Romeo and Juliet 


Ah oh na na na na na na na 

Ah oh la la la la la la la 


I think we have something great 

Maybe this was all fate 

Oh why did I wait? 

Could our liking grow to the extent? 

Of an epic love story no one understands 

Can we reach the high end?

Oh I can’t pretend to not see 

How in my head I have been 

Not everything can last forever 

Especially under so much pressure 

Just because two friends are now together 

Not everything can last forever 

Forever oh 


Are we gonna the the next Romeo and Juliet? 

The saxophone to my clarinet

But right now we’re just taking things slow 

But will our relationship grow? 

Into Romeo and Juliet 

In it together till death 

Oh will you and I be 

The next Romeo and Juliet 


Ah oh na na na na na na na 

Ah oh la la la la la la la 


Who knows if we’ll be the next Romeo and Juliet 

Holding hands and watching the sunset 

Cause nothing lasts forever 

Especially under so much pressure 

Nothing lasts forever 

Romeo and Juliet 

In it together till death 

Oh Romeo and Juliet 

Mhm

This was a song I wrote in middle school about love. I was reading Romeo and Juliet in school and I wanted to write a song about love when it came to those two book characters.
