I'll be your beast; if you will be my beauty
I'll be your Romeo; Juliette
If you'll only hold me here awhile

I'll set the mood if you light up my room
I'll lay out the blanket for your picnic lunch
If we can watch the stars together

Not every story is just a story
Not every romance is a tragedy
We'll write the greatest love song
And prove how amazing it can be

You be my Cinderella and I'll fetch your slippers
You be my Bettie page
And I'll submit to you

If you open up the door I can take you places
If you answer this phone call
We can talk the night away

In time this will all be worth it
In the meantime dance with me
I know its hard to risk it all
And open up yourself to me

I'll live this thru if you live thru it too
If you can hold on I will hold onto you
And be yours

If you feed the fire, I'll stoke the flame
I'll burn the past if you do the same
And be warm with me

Life began in that moment
In that second you caught my eye
And now for once I can say
My heart is really alive
