Taylor Swift - Love Story

We ___________ both young when I first ___________ you

I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm _______________ there
On a _______________ in summer air
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the _______________
And say, "Hello"
Little did I know

That you ___________ Romeo, you were _______________ pebbles

And your daddy ___________, "Stay away from Juliet"
And I was ___________ on the _______________
Begging you, "Please don't go," and I ___________
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be _______________, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the _______________
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"

So I _______________ out to the _______________ to see you

We keep quiet, 'cause we're dead if they ___________
So close your eyes
Escape this _______________ for a little while, oh oh

'Cause you ___________ Romeo, I ___________ a scarlet letter

And my daddy ___________, "Stay away from Juliet"
But you ___________ everything to me
I was _______________ you, "Please don't go," and I said

Romeo, take me _______________ we can be alone

I'll be _______________, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"
Romeo, “save me, they're ___________ to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it's _______________
Don't be _______________, we'll make it out of this _______________
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"
Oh, oh
I ___________ tired of waiting
_______________ if you were ever coming around
My _______________ in you was ___________
When I ___________ you on the outskirts of _______________, and I ___________

Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so _______________

I keep _______________ for you, but you never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think
He knelt to the _______________ and ___________ out a _______________
And ___________, "Marry me, Juliet”
You'll never have to be _______________
I love you and that's all I really know
I ___________ to your dad, go pick out a white _______________
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
'Cause we were both young when I first saw you
