Juliet

I was a vagabond, She a beauty queen

Man, the best damn thing I'd ever seen

Ain't it easy to call cards at 17

Those days I was lost in dreary visions

Thinking she would be my bride

But when I opened up my eyes

She wasn't mine, she wasn't mine, she wasn't mine

My Juliet seems to be the only thing I'll never find all of my days

For I have read the books, and cast the spells, and wrote the words

In oh so many ways

So many ways

So many ways

Well, self-decided was a man, 25 still in my hands

When I saw her dancing square across the water

Wasn't beauty caught my eye, but fate I did decide

For I had told myself our love would last forever

Well forever came, I could not tell her that

My Juliet seems to be the only thing I'll never find all of my days

For I have read the books, and cast the spells

And wrote the words in oh so many ways

Maybe I'm governed without reason

But giving up just seems like treason in my old age

So forever I'll be searching for my sun, my moon, my Juliet, my grave

Now here at the end, loneliness my only friend

My thoughts drift to Juliet more than ever

They say she's out there in a dream, blessing some tall balcony

She is out of reach, still as beautiful as ever

My Juliet seems to be the only thing I'll never find all of my days

For I have read the books, and cast the spells, and wrote the words

In oh so many ways, so many ways, so many ways
