Romeo Is Dead - Peter Wolf

I used to follow wanting

Wherever it would lead me

A lot of lovers had me

When they really didn’t need me

Fever in the blood

Fever in the brain

No one’s walking out tonight

Down on lover’s lane

Romeo is dead

Juliet is dying

Love and death

Has got this whole town crying

They believed the moon

The moon was lying

My heart is just a fool

And fools keep trying

I got a hundred dollars

Won’t last me till the morning

If I spend it on you, baby

Will you catch me when I’m falling

Take a little pleasure

Take a little pain

Want to take a chance tonight

Down on lover’s lane

Romeo is dead

Juliet is dying

Love and death

Has got this whole town crying

They believed the moon

The moon was lying

My heart is just a fool

And fools keep trying

Down at the end of the line

I got nothing to spend but my time

And it’s flying, flying…
