What’s Your Secret Romeo

By Bruce Clifford

I want to talk to you Romeo.
I tried to call but no one was home.
I have imagined what it’s like to be you out there.

I read the book about you and Juliet.
As you can see, I can’t forget.
What is it like being the two of you out there?

What’s your secret Romeo?
What’s your secret Romeo?
What’s your secret Romeo?
Romeo

You said you loved her when you looked in her eyes.
I knew her once so I’m not so surprised.
What is it like to see her through the night?

I want to ask you Romeo.
How does it feel to have her to hold?
What’s it like sitting under the stars with her out there?

What’s your secret Romeo?
What’s your secret Romeo?
What’s your secret Romeo?
Romeo

I want to talk to you Romeo.
There are so many things I want to know.
Why did you hurt her knowing she was pure?

I saw the play about you and Juliet.
How could you destroy her without any regrets?
When they took you away did it ring in your head at all?

What’s your secret Romeo?
What’s your secret Romeo?
What’s your secret Romeo?
Romeo
