We were both young when I first saw you
我第壹次見到妳的時候我們都很年輕
I closed my eyes and the flashback starts
我閉上眼睛,閃回開始了
I'm standing there,On a balcony in summer air
我站在那裏,在夏日的陽臺上
See the lights see the party the ball gowns
看燈光看派對舞會禮服
I see you make your way through the crowd
我看見妳穿過人群
And say hello,Little did I know
打個招呼,我壹點也不知道
That you were Romeo you were throwing pebbles
妳是羅密歐妳在扔鵝卵石
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
我爸爸說離朱麗葉遠點
And I was crying on the staircase
我在樓梯上哭
Begging you please don't go,And I said
求妳別走,我說
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
羅密歐帶我去壹個我們可以獨處的地方
I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run
我會等的,剩下的就是跑了
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
妳是王子,我是公主
It's a love story,Baby just say yes
這是壹個愛情故事,寶貝,答應我就行了
So I sneak out to the garden to see you

We keep quiet cause we're dead if they knew

So close your eyes,Escape this town for a little while

Cause you were Romeo I was the scarlet letter

Wondering if you were ever coming around

'Cause we were both young when I first saw you

《Love Story》歌曲鑒賞:
歌曲描述了壹段不被斯威夫特親朋好友看好的戀情。斯威夫特以威廉·莎士比亞的《羅密歐與朱麗葉》為靈感創作了歌曲,但將原作悲劇的結局改為了皆大歡喜的結局。
《Love Story》是壹首由班卓琴和吉他伴奏的中速抒情歌曲?,這首結構相對簡單的歌曲只有四個和弦,歌詞內容借用羅密歐與朱麗葉般的愛情橋段,描繪了壹對不得不把愛情深深地埋在心底的可憐戀人。
