Well if I spell it out, if I get it out,
will you hear me when I tell you about
what I have to say before it gets too late.
It's not as easy as they said it'd be,
but there's something right about you and me,
something right about you and me.

Well you're the color of a burning brook,
you're the color of a sideways look
from an undercover cop in a comic book;
you're the color of a storm in June
you're the color of the moon.
You're the color of the night that's right.
The color of a fight you move me.
You're the color of the colored part of the Wizard of Oz movie.

We're like Romeo and Juliet,
we're like 40 dogs cigarettes.
We're like good times that haven't happened yet but will.
I can tell you where we're gonna be
when the whole world falls in-to the sea,
we'll be livin' ever after, happily.

All the boys taking you for granted,
tell you what they want with their eyes all slanted.
I don't like the way they look at you.
I don't like the way they talk, too.
I don't like the way they talk to you.
I wouldn't let 'em talk to you like that.

Put 'em up high reach for the ceiling
tell 'em that I don't walk damnit
I'm reelin'
it ain't no crime it's just dreams
we're stealing.
Anything to get more of this feeling.
you take the high and I'll take the low,
we'll get there before you know.
We ain't got no time to waste,
we got too much life to taste.

We're like Romeo and Juliet
and 40 dogs cigarettes,
we're like good times that haven't happened yet but will.
I can tell you where we're gonna be
when the whole world falls in-to the sea,
we'll be livin' ever after happily.

Sometimes you remind me of a moonbeam
on the ghost of a moonbeam
out on the beach down by the coast.
Slip into the nil like the most..
beautiful thing...
I've ever seen.

Come out tonight come out with me baby,
we'll throw the careful into the crazy.
Turn the sky black into a sky blue.
Turn a close shave into a hoo hoo!
What I say is true.
Make a fire ought to burn a few.
Make a fire ought to burn a few
we can do what we want to do.

We're like Romeo and Juliet
40 dogs cigarettes
we're like good times that haven't happened yet but will.
I can tell you where we're gonna be
when the whole world falls in-to the sea,
we'll be livin' ever after happily.
