Gabrielle Aplin - Romeo Must Die Lyrics






You used to write me letters
You'd send me records in the post
Like 'Born To Run', by Springsteen
You knew the songs I love the most
But with the sweetest sorrow
Told you some things just won't last

For you and I are passed our dancing days
I said it's not your fault, I lied
and I don't have time to watch you cry
And I'm thinking Romeo must die, ai, ai, ai, ai

I tried to treat you gently
I said I'd always be your friend
But now your hands are empty
You don't know how to let this end

So with the sweetest sorrow
Let me spell it out for you

For you and I are passed our dancing days
I said it's not your fault, I lied
I don't have time to watch you cry
And I'm thinking Romeo must die, ai, ai, ai, ai

Did you think I wouldn't notice
As if I wouldn't pass an eye
Did you think that you could hide it
All of your violent delights
[x2]

I said it's not your fault, I lied
I don't have time to watch you cry
And I'm thinking Romeo must die, ai, ai, ai, ai
[x2]

    CAPULET:Ah, sirrah, this unlooked-for sport comes well.—
    Nay, sit, nay, sit, good cousin Capulet,
    For you and I are past our dancing days.

  22. I.... B....

    tell me the quote :)))

  23. E.... E....

    I fell in love with your music just a little bit more when I found an actual Romeo and Juliet quote in here.

  24. J.... L....

    wow. got chills at one point in that song :')

  25. K.... A....

    I said it's not your fault. I lied.

  26. k.... ....

    This is one of my favourite songs by Gabrielle ♥

  27. l.... t....

    I made a lyrics of this

  28. D.... _....

    So anybody got an idea what tuning she uses?

  29. K.... ....

    Amazing! Xxxxxxxx

  30. j.... ....

    As for the Ed Sheeran comment, it was misdirected anger. He's a great artist, no question about it. I should be pissed at the radio DJs that have no idea of variety and use playlists of the same 5 songs day in day out - one of which happens to be Ed Sheeran's Give Me Love.

  31. j.... ....

    Perhaps we have different ideas of how the music industry works. I'm not saying I'm right, I'm not saying you're wrong. But based on what counts as 'hit' music these days, it seems unlikely to me that even if more artists take up this genre, the labels won't sign them all.
    What I meant by the original comment was that we need actual -singers- and not autotuned oompa loompas.

  32. j.... ....

    I said more, not every. And as far as I'm concerned, Sheeran stands out for the wrong reasons.

  33. j.... ....

    Today's music industry needs more singers like Gabrielle.

  34. L.... H....

    Gabrielle your songs ar really perfect!! Can't wait to buy your new album :)

  35. j.... k....

    she is 20.

  38. V.... M....

  39. V.... C....

  40. M.... ....

    even if you'll shit in her face she'll be beautiful and sing like an angel :)

  41. H.... L....

    This girl will go far far far away... SHE`S GREAT AS A HUGE ARTIST!!

  42. R.... Y....

    I'm starting to wonder if you'll ever disappoint me Gabrielle! Every time I hit one of your videos I'm amazed and now you're being produced and totally deserving of that. If you're writing these songs yourself then .... just wow. Fantastic Gabrielle. You and I would work well together, I sing also. ;) Have a good Holiday.

  92. T.... ....

    Do you sing about anything specific when you plan to write an ep, or is just whatever comes to your head and fits well? Truly amazing, can't wait for the 9th! Merry Christmas. x

  93. S.... K....

    This is probably never going to get to her but

    I want to do a duet with you

    this isn't a joke I actually want to do a duet with Gabrielle
    my friends tell me that I can sing and I've been dying to do a duet with someone
    If you can't I get it and I don't take any offense to you
    but yea it would be my dream to do a duet with Gabrielle

    please respond

  94. v.... ....
