"Romeo and Juliet" by Dire Straits
Band: Dire Straits
Album: Making Movies (their best) Song: Romeo and Juliet (side 1, track 2) A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade Laying everybody low, with a love song that he made Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade Says something like, "you and me babe how about it?" Juliet says, "hey it's Romeo you nearly gave me a heart attack" He's underneath the window, she's singing, "hey la my boyfriend's back You shouldn't come around here singing up at people like that Anyway what you gonna do about it?" "Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start And I bet, that you exploded into my heart And I forget, i forget, the movie song When you gonna realize, it was just that the time was wrong Juliet?" Come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame Both dirty, both mean, yes, and the dream was just the same "And I dreamed your dream for you, and now your dream is real How can you look at me as if i was just another one of your deals?" When you can fall for chains of silver You can fall for chains of gold You can fall for pretty strangers, and the promises they hold You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin, yeah Now you just say, "oh Romeo, yeah, you know, I used to have a scene with him" "Juliet, when we made love you used to cry You said, "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you till I die" There's a place for us, you know the movie song When you gonna realize, it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?" "I can't do the talk, like the talk on the TV And I can't do a love song, like the way it's meant to be I can't do everything, but I'd do anything for you I can't do anything except be in love with you" "And all I do is miss you, and the way we used to be All I do is keep the beat, and bad company Now all I do is kiss you, through the bars of a rhyme Juliet I'd do the stars with you any time" "Juliet when we made love, you used to cry You said, "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you till I die" There's a place for us, you know the movie song When you gonna realize, it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?" A lovestruck Romeo, sings the streets a serenade Laying everybody low, with a lovesong that he made Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade Says something like, "you and me babe how about it?" |

you've always been a b*tch, since i can't remember when. you irritate my brain, and you're driving me insane... no i never wanna f***ing see you again why'd ya have to be such a b*tch?" the tune is so catchy, too....like, upbeat almost.....makes it perfect! lol....sister havana, i'm glad someone has heard it and been inspired! i never heard it until my friend grant played it for me a few yrs ago....he has all this music i've never heard. anyway, it's a lil anthem for us, too, when break-ups happen. always a good pick-me-up! even changed the words around to fit a more girlie atmosphere. :) |

Lots of good breakup songs, but based on what I can think of off the top of my head, Coldplay wins hands down!
