Montague and Capulet
G# Fm
Already sets the scene

Nothing but a writer's dream

I remember the time when you told me

"Baby, love is a work of art"

I saw you scanning the corners of the canvas
G# C#
Just like you didn't know where to
start

That's something only the artist could know

C# D#
By the coast when I held your hand

Feels like a distant dream

But I was caught up in a fantasy

You held my face and you gently kissed

But all it told me was how much you'd miss me
