Lyrics
ROMEO
Reflections of your face keep crossing my mind
And I can't stop feeling so blue all the time
I wanted to show you but never revealed
Now my heart is bursting with this love I've concealed
Well, I should have told you and asked you to stay
But I kept my secret, now you've gone away
Oh, Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
Did you look in my eyes, when we said our goodbyes?
Oh, Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
Oh, why did I hide all this love I've inside?
Oh, my Romeo
We were so close, now you're so far away
When I should have told you I had nothing to say
We have our friendship girl, but I want so much more
I could feel my heart breaking as you walked out the door
Well, I should have told you and asked you to stay
But I kept my secret, now you've gone away
Oh, Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
Did you look in my eyes, when we said our goodbyes?
Oh, Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
Oh, why did I hide all this love I've inside?
Oh, my Romeo
(Keyboard Lead)
Oh, I should have told you and asked you to stay
But I kept my secret, now you've gone away
Oh, Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
Did you look in my eyes, when we said our goodbyes?
Oh, Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
Oh, why did I hide all this love I've inside?
Oh, Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
Did you look in my eyes, when we said our goodbyes?
Oh, Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
Oh, why did I hide all this love I've inside?
Oh, my Romeo
Romeo, Romeo
