The Balcony Scene

Both of the following sections are written as complete lyrics to this song: 
If you wish to read/sing along to the music, listen once for Juliet, and then a second time for Romeo’s reply. The final phrase of each section repeats to the end of the track.

The Balcony Scene

Juliet:

Where have you gone?

Where have you gone?

Where have you gone?

I don’t see you

I don’t see you

I don’t see you

And once again

I find myself waiting for you, love

A simple moment

Just any moment

To hold your hand, love

It’s all I want

Please do not fade

I want you close

Why can’t you stay, love?

I don’t need perfect

Or some false promise

I just want you, love

So please don’t leave me

stay close beside me

and hold me tightly

My eyes are aching from all these goodbyes, 

goodbyes, goodbyes, goodbyes,

goodbyes. . .

Romeo

can you hear me?

can you hear me?

can you hear me?

I never left.

hear my still voice.

hear my still voice.

And know at once

That I am tethered to your heart, love

A perfect moment

One quiet moment

To hold your hand, love

It’s all I ask

I will not fade

I want you close

Please let me stay, love

And then together

We’ll find some future

We won’t surrender

We’ll last forever

In our sweet secret

Where loving matters

and nothing else can cloud your eyes,

your eyes, your eyes, your eyes

your eyes. . .
