We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes
And the flashback starts
I'm standing there
On a balcony in summer air
See the lights
See the party, the ball gowns
I see wewe make your way through the crowd
And say hello, little did I know
That wewe were Romeo, wewe were throwing pebbles
And my daddy alisema stay away from Juliet
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging wewe please don't go, and I said
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a upendo story baby just say yes
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes
Escape this town for a little while
'Cause wewe were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy alisema stay away from Juliet
But wewe were everything to me
I was begging wewe please don't go and I said
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a upendo story baby just say yes
Romeo save me, they try to tell me how to feel
This upendo is difficult, but it's real
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a upendo story baby just say yes
Oh oh
I got tired of waiting
Wondering if wewe were ever coming around
My faith in wewe is fading
When I met wewe on the outskirts of town, and I said
Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for wewe but wewe never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring
And said, marry me Juliet
You'll never have to be alone
I upendo wewe and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It's a upendo story baby just say yes
Oh, oh, oh, oh
'Cause we were both young when I first saw you
