Hello Love Goodbye
To Be Juliet's Secret Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Verse one:]
I saw you walking in the street
Don't look this way love, please.
Just let my heart, let it go.
It took me back to that day
You turned and walked away
And said it's supposed to be this way
I'd be okay cause it was all the same
I guess our story is ending here

[Chorus:]
My pen could only write your name
You were filling every page, so fast.
Then we fell and died away,
It's not supposed to be this way
I'm so far from okay, if it's all the same then it's just you that's okay.

[Verse two:]
I saw you crying in the street
Don't do this now love, please.
We've been here so many times before
Take me back to that day,
I turned and walked away and said
It's supposed to be this way, I thought I'd be okay
Cause it was all the same, I guess our story is ending here

[Bridge:]
Take me back to that day, I'd make it all okay
I don't know what to say




I didn't know you felt that way,
My lips could only say your name you were filling every phrase, so fast but then we fell and died away

I can believe I woke up in 2020 with this song stuck in my head

Darren Lampley

I left my family finally. I was 17 and they weren't good people then. A friends family took me in and were really good to me. At nights I'd walk around town since they lived in the city, "small town." I was always scared about what would happen after but I listened to this song then when I was scared and it made me feel better. I always come back and listen to it for the years to come. Anyways I found my way, I live alone but I have a home and I do it all by myself. It's not much but I'm proud. I'm 28 and its 2020 and love this song. Wish others could hear and feel it. <3

wow, seriously, i know they don't have typical voices. However, it's a great song, and you don't need to bash anyone. I love this song, and I admit that the first time I heard their voices..i thought it was kind of weird.. but i got over it and it's one of my favorite songs <3
