Juliet
B. Gibb Lyrics

Juliet
Robin Gibb
I steal the night away
Drivin' my life away, dancin'
I was a romeo

I knew the art of romancin'
I was just one of the guys
And I thought I had it made
I needed someone to show me how to love

Juliet oh Juliet
The night was magic when we first met
Juliet, oh Juliet
You know you taught me to fly
You take me clear to the sky
And all the people around the world can stand aside
For me and my baby, Juliet

Fighting with destiny, fortune and fame but kept losing
Playin' a joker's game,
Only myself I was foolin'
I was an average guy in a world of empty dreams
You've broken down all the walls with your love

Juliet, oh Juliet
This kind of lovin' you don't forget
Juliet, oh Juliet
You know you taught me to fly
You take me clear to the sky
And all the people around the world can stand aside

Close your eyes, Juliet, don't let go

On and on, our love is like the sun
It keeps going strong throughout eternity
I want to love you in my life, sweet Juliet
Livin' without you in my life, oh my girl Juliet

Juliet, oh Juliet
This kind of lovin' you don't forget
Juliet, oh Juliet
You know you taught me to fly
You take me clear to the sky
And all the people around the world can stand aside

Juliet, oh Juliet
This kind of lovin' you don't forget




Juliet, oh Juliet, Ah...
Juliet, oh Juliet

Line by Line Meaning

I steal the night away
I escape into the darkness of the night


Drivin' my life away, dancin'
I drive aimlessly through life, trying to find something worth moving for


I was a romeo
I acted like a player


I knew the art of romancin'
I thought I knew how to be romantic


I was just one of the guys
I blended in with the crowd, nothing special about me


And I thought I had it made
I believed I was successful


I needed someone to show me how to love
I was missing the knowledge of how to truly love someone


Juliet oh Juliet
The person I fell in love with


The night was magic when we first met
The night when we first met was very special and memorable


You know you taught me to fly
You gave me wings and made me feel alive


You take me clear to the sky
You elevate me to a whole new level of happiness


And all the people around the world can stand aside
No one else matters when we are together


Fighting with destiny, fortune and fame but kept losing
I struggled with finding my purpose and direction in life


Playin' a joker's game, Only myself I was foolin'
I acted like a fool and didn't take life seriously


I was an average guy in a world of empty dreams
I felt ordinary and lost in a world of unfulfilling aspirations


You've broken down all the walls with your love
Your love has shattered all the barriers that I had built up around my heart


Close your eyes, Juliet, don't let go
Let's hold on tight to this moment and cherish it forever


On and on, our love is like the sun
Our love is constant and never fades


It keeps going strong throughout eternity
Our love will last forever


I want to love you in my life, sweet Juliet
I want to spend the rest of my life loving and cherishing you, my dear Juliet


Livin' without you in my life, oh my girl Juliet
Life would not be the same without you, my love


This kind of lovin' you don't forget
The love we share is unforgettable


Juliet, oh Juliet, Ah...
Juliet, my love
