In a foreign place, the saving grace was the feeling
And that it was a heart that he was stealing
Oh, he was ready to impress and the fierce excitement
The eyes are bright he couldn't wait to get away
I bet the Juliet was just the icing on the cake Make no mistake, no
* And even if somehow we could have shown you the place you wanted
Well, I'm sure you could have made it that bit better on your own
And I bet she told a million people that she'd stay in touch
Well, all the little promises they don't mean much When there's memories to be made
And I hope you're holding hands by New Year's Eve
They made it far too easy to believe That true romance can't be achieved these days
