Lyrics Mindy McCready

Mindy McCready

Oh Romeo

Juliet waits at the border

Up a creek without a quarter Gazes into the dark

Was it the moon or only

Her fear of being lonely

That gave her leave of her heart?

Oh oh oh

Oh Romeo (Romeo)

Who would lay down her life? (Romeo)

Swallow the poison, pick up the knife

Maybe I'd cry (maybe I'd cry)

Just a teardrop or two (tear or two)

But I would not die for you

I would not die for you

Just another romantic depressive

Giving in she becomes obsessive

Maybe this time I'll learn

Life's like a box of matches

Sometimes the whole thing catches

And all you can do is watch it burn

Oh oh oh

Oh Romeo (Romeo)

Who would lay down her life? (Romeo)

Swallow the poison, pick up the knife

Maybe I'd cry (maybe I'd cry)

Just a teardrop or two (tear or two)

But I would not die for you

I would not die for you

La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la

Juliet waits at the border

Contemplates the new world order

Oh Romeo (Romeo)

Who would lay down her life? (Romeo)

Swallow the poison, pick up the knife

Maybe I'd cry (maybe I'd cry)

Just a teardrop or two (tear or two)

But I would not die for you

I would not die for you

I would not die for you

Oh Romeo (Romeo) Oh Romeo (Romeo) Oh Romeo, Romeo, Romeo, Romeo, Romeo
