Juliet
By: Kevin Carton

Sitting in the garage on july 9th
watching the rain pour down
kicking back in lawn chairs 10 o'clock at night
our hearts beating is the only sound
and just when i think it can't get any better than this
you lean over touch my hand and you give me a little kiss
now i think it's time that we reminisce over me and you
here's what i've come to

(chorus)
i dont want anything to change
no i dont
i dont want to go back and rearrange
no i wont
i've been waiting for someone like you
someone i could give my heart to
i dont want anything to change

dancing in the basement with the lights down low
you're like an angel in my arms
feels like we're in the moonlight down in mexico
just me and you and the stars
and then i realize how good you are looking tonight
and i know i must be the luckiest man alive
i want you and me to be husband and wife for eternity
just you and me

(chorus)

in fifty years from now we will still be hand in hand
our kids will have moved out it will just be me and you again
you'll still be my woman and i'll still be your man
like the day we met
you're my juliet

(chorus)
