Love Story
Minipop Kids Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I close my eyes
And the flashback starts
I'm standing there
On a balcony in summer air
See the lights
See the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
{Pre-}
That you were Romeo, you were throwing
Pebbles
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you please don't go, and I said
{1}
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, 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
{2}
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes
Escape this town for a little while
{Pre-}
Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
But you were everything to me
I was begging you please don't go and I said
{2}
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting 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 tryin' to tell me how to
Feel
This love is difficult, but it's real
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story baby just say yes
Oh oh
{Bridge}
I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town, and I
Said
Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and
Said
{3}
Marry me Juliet
You'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It's a love story baby just say yes
{}
Oh, oh,
Oh, oh
'Cause we were both young when I first saw
You...
This song is titled "Love Story" by Minipop Kids. The song starts off with the singer reminiscing about her first encounter with her love interest, Romeo. She was young when she first sees him at a party and is immediately drawn to him. However, her father forbids her from seeing Romeo. The singer sneaks away from her family to see Romeo, and their relationship blossoms in secret. Eventually, Romeo asks her to marry him and the story ends happily.
One could interpret this song as a modern retelling of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. The lyrics depict the challenges and obstacles that the couple faces while still trying to love each other. In this song, the singer is represented as a strong, independent woman who fights for what she wants. By rebelling against her father and going after Romeo, she shows her determination to hold onto their love.
Overall, "Love Story" is an ode to young love and taking risks for the people one loves.
