Shane Thurston - American Romeo Lyrics

We bumped into each other
As we were walking down the street
Looking for some shade
To try and beat the August heat
Two star-crossed lovers
From opposite ends of town

She was beautiful
With an easy going carefree spirit
We talked for hours
But it only felt like a minute
Something inside of me lost
Had suddenly been found

Just the mere mention of her name
Was enough to make me go insane

But I came running when she called me
From her window
Just like Juliet
In the soft Moon's glow
My front seats waiting
Just say go
She found her American Romeo

Went to meet her father
Greeted him with "How ya doin Sir?"
He said "Absolutely not! Son, stay away from her"
"Over my dead body, she'll be with a lower class rat"

But, when push comes to shove
You just don't mess with that kind of love

So I came running when she called me
From her window
Just like Juliet
In the soft Moon's glow
My front seats waiting
Just say go
I'll be your American Romeo

I swear I'll love you for the rest of your days
Even when you're old and grey

But I came running when you called me
Just like Juliet
My front seats waiting
Don't you ever forget

That I'll come running when you call me
From your window
Just like Juliet
In the soft Moon's glow
My front seats waiting
Just say go
I'll be your American Romeo
Your American Romeo
Your American Romeo
Your American Romeo
Your American Romeo
American Romeo
