[Intro]
[Verse]
In the leaves and grass we saw
All the future and the past
And though we sang the open road
With man to the last
[Verse]
Thought you were my saviour then
Letters in a certain hand
So sure in your delusion
Written in the sand
[Chorus]
My, my Juliet
Think of the night that we first met
Even the green corn turns to gold
Someday you will love me
My, my Juliet
There were times I can t forget
Even the green hills touch the sky
Someday you will tell me why
[Verse]
The letter I wrote to explain
Was six or seven pages long
Filled with clichés of regret
An old familiar song
[Verse]
Lines and lines filled up with words
Of uncertainty and doubt
I was so much younger then
I had to let those feelings out
[Chorus]
My, my Juliet
Think of that night when we first met
Even the green corn turns to gold
Someday you will love me
My, my Juliet
There were times we can t forget
Even the green hills touch the sky
Someday you will tell me why
[Verse]
When I came down from Shadow borough
You looked right through me in the street
You weren t who you believed you were
You d beaten your retreat
[Verse]
Didn t know what I should do
Should I laugh or should I cry
Knowing just how to react
Gets tougher as these years go by
[Chorus]
My, my Juliet
Think of the night when we first met
Even the green corn turns to gold
Someday you will love me
My, my Juliet
There were times we can t forget
Even the green hills touch the sky
Someday you will tell me why
[Outro]
