Lyrics
He picked her up for her very first date
Wouldn't you know it, he got there late
I guess he didn't care that he made her wait at all
He kinda mumbled when he said his name
An awkward laugh, and she did the same
I couldn't see what she saw in him at all
She likes to think that he's her Romeo
I'm sure he's just a phony though
That boy is gonna roam, you know
He'll end up breaking her heart
She likes to dream that she's his Juliet
Been crazy 'bout him since the day they met
But he just hasn't shown his bad side yet
He'll soon be breaking her heart
His car's in the driveway all of the time
Taking the space that's supposed to be mine
He's a misfit stone and he's trying to court a pearl
But she wants to hear every song that he knows
And she wants to go everywhere that he goes
Before he came around she used to be Daddy's girl
She likes to think that he's her Romeo
I'm sure he's just a phony though
That boy is gonna roam, you know
He'll end up breaking her heart
She likes to dream that she's his Juliet
Been crazy 'bout him since the day they met
But he just hasn't shown his bad side yet
He'll soon be breaking her heart
And then she says they're gonna tie the knot
He's gonna be family
He never even asked if he could have her hand
Their relationship's moving much too fast for me
Somehow she always wears a happy face
Though it took two them two years just to get their own place
She didn't care that he made her wait at all
Sometimes his job has been on the skids
But ready or not, here come some kids
I didn't see what she saw in him at all... now,
I thank God that he's her Romeo
I love those kids they have at home, you know
They all really love to roam and go
I should have trusted his heart
She still dreams that she's his Juliet
Been crazy 'bout him since the day they met
He still hasn't shown a bad side yet
He cherishes her heart
I thank God that he's her Romeo
