🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • And I said
  • "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

Echo the hook

  • Oh, oh-oh
  • I got tired of waiting
  • Wondering if you were ever coming around
  • My faith in you was fading
