as he takes another step
he turns another page
one more chapter gone from his life
make room for the next right on stage

and he's a love-struck romeo
searching for his juliet
with a picture book imagination
that runs as fast as it can get
oh romeo romeo

and its a great dress-up illusion
like the haze in every dream
and there's no figuring him out
cause he's not as he seems

and there's no getting through to him
when he thinks he's found his juliet
till the picture book storie's over
and there he is left
oh romeo romeo

well he's left without a hand to hold
left with shattered dreams
left with nothing left to show
for the way it used to be

and he's a love-struck romeo
searching for his juliet
with a picture book imagination
that runs as fast as it can get
oh romeo romeo

and its a great dress-up illusion
like the haze in every dream
and there's no figuring him out
cause he's not as he seems

he's a love struck romeo
and he's searching for his juliet
with a picture book imagination
that runs as fast as it can get
oh romeo romeo
