This is a story about a boy and a girl   Tryin' to find their life in the big world   Somehow they're together      There ain't much to the mystery   Misery loves company   She just waves her hand and says "whatever"      Well this ain't love, this ain't love, this ain't love at all   And he says, "we're not Romeo, we're not Juliet.    How long does it take to fill this emptiness?   We're just two lost souls and baby, we got no regrets.    Don't want to say bye bye,    Babe it's just you and I.   We're not Romeo, we're not Juliet."      He ain't pretty with his hard old heart   Second-generation immigrant scars   And he knows that this ain't heaven, no      She's all skinny like a cigarette   And he's the only thing, the only thing that she respects   And he's trying to make it better      This ain't love, this ain't love, this ain't love at all   And she says, "we're not Romeo, we're not Juliet.    You'd thought you've seen it all,   But you ain't seen nothing yet.   We're just two lost souls, oh   Baby we've got not regrets   Now it's just you and I   We're nothing unless we try.   We're not Romeo, we're not Juliet."      It has to feel right but it never does   It has to be perfect but it never is.   You want to be sure but you never do.   We're not Romeo or Juliet,   It's just me and you      We're just two lost souls and baby,    we got no regrets   Don't want to say bye bye,   Babe it's just you and I.   We're not Romeo, we're not Juliet      We're not Romeo, we're not Juliet   Oh, how long does it take to fill this emptiness?   We're just two lost souls and baby,    we got no regrets      Now it's just you and I   We're nothing unless we try.   Oh no, we're not Romeo, not Juliet   No we're not, that's a fact.
