Romeo And Juliet by Dire Straits
Lyrics & Translation
English
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 gimme 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 ya gonna do about it?"
"Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start
And I bet, when 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 I was just another one of your deals?
Well 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 'til 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 they 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 the bad company
And 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 'til 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"
And a lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Finds a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade
Says something like, "You and me babe, how about it?"
"You and me babe, how about it?"

Romeo And Juliet (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Un Romeo enamorado canta una serenata por las calles
Dejando a todos rendidos con una canción de amor que él hizo
Encuentra una farola, sale de la sombra
Dice algo como: "Tú y yo, nena, ¿qué te parece?"
Julieta dice: "Oye, es Romeo, casi me das un infarto"
Él está debajo de la ventana
Ella está cantando: "Hey la, mi novio ha vuelto
No deberías venir por aquí cantando así a la gente
De todos modos, ¿qué vas a hacer al respecto?"
"Julieta, los dados estaban cargados desde el principio
Y apuesto, cuando explotaste en mi corazón
Y olvido, olvido
La canción de la película
¿Cuándo te darás cuenta de que el momento era el equivocado?
Julieta"
Aparecen en calles diferentes, ambas eran calles de vergüenza
Ambas sucias, ambas crueles, sí y el sueño era el mismo
Y soñé tu sueño por ti, y ahora tu sueño es real
¿Cómo puedes mirarme como si fuera solo uno más de tus tratos?
Bueno, puedes caer por cadenas de plata, puedes caer por cadenas de oro
Puedes caer por extraños bonitos y las promesas que guardan
Me prometiste todo
Me prometiste en las buenas y en las malas, sí
Ahora solo dices: "Oh Romeo, sí, sabes que solía tener algo con él"
"Julieta, cuando hicimos el amor solías llorar
Dijiste que te amo como las estrellas de arriba, te amaré hasta que muera
Hay un lugar para nosotros
(Conoces la canción de la película)
¿Cuándo te darás cuenta de que el momento era el equivocado?
Julieta"
"No puedo hablar como hablan en la televisión
Y no puedo hacer una canción de amor como debe ser
No puedo hacer todo, pero haría cualquier cosa por ti
No puedo hacer nada excepto estar enamorado de ti
Y todo lo que hago es extrañarte, y cómo solíamos ser
Todo lo que hago es seguir el ritmo y la mala compañía
Y todo lo que hago es besarte a través de los barrotes de una rima
Julieta, haría las estrellas contigo en cualquier momento"
"Julieta, cuando hicimos el amor solías llorar
Dijiste que te amo como las estrellas de arriba, te amaré hasta que muera
Hay un lugar para nosotros
(Conoces la canción de la película)
¿Cuándo te darás cuenta de que el momento era el equivocado?
Julieta"
Y un Romeo enamorado canta una serenata por las calles
Dejando a todos rendidos con una canción de amor que él hizo
Encuentra una farola conveniente, sale de la sombra
Dice algo como: "Tú y yo, nena, ¿qué te parece?"
"Tú y yo, nena, ¿qué te parece?"
