Letra Romeo & juliet Ryan Adams

Romeo & juliet

Romeo looks down and sees Juliet
Nodding off in the alley with a lit cigarette
Looks like her hair caught on fire for a sec
Streets full of cop cars like somebody wrecked

Juliet looks up and sees Romeo
In her camouflage pants and dirty poncho
Extending her arm, she flips him the bird
Blows him a kiss, and winks as she turns

Didn't like the sound of thundering clouds in the mountain
Bullets and shells where Juliet fell behind the hotel garbage
Romeo's tears fell where he stood
Her body went limp where it mixed with the blood

The detective looked up and saw Romeo
He just nodded his head like to tell him to go
Approaching her body with guns drawn unsaid
Stay alert, confirm that the suspect is dead

When they got close, she said up and said
"Fuck you!" then pulled the pin on the grenades instead

Didn't like the sound of thundering clouds in the mountain side
Fire's ablaze where Juliet laid behind the hotel in the garbage pile

Since then nobody's seen Romeo
Found the diamond bags empty on a pier by the boats
Put your ear to the wind and you'll hear the sound
Of Puerto Morelos where he settled down

Just like the sound of thundering clouds in the mountain
Bullets and shells where Juliet fell behind the hotel garbage in the garbage

Romeo looks down and sees Juliet
Nodding off in the alley with a lit cigarette
Looks like her hair caught on fire for a sec
Streets full of cop cars like somebody wrecked
