​default genders - ​heart emoji xo lyrics

Well, she was so exhausted that
She must have forgot
To ask this awkward twentysomething dude
If he was a cop
He said he didn't bring the money
So he had to take off
Because without it, either way
She isn't giving a fuck
So after locking up
She sat in bed and she thought
About the timeline of events that
Follows hearing a knock
Looking through the peephole
Trying to see what he brought
Is it a wallet, or a
Badge? a pack of condoms, or cuffs?
She looked out at the balcony where
They were set to meet
And then back into the mirror for a second
Just to see if the package she was working
Could be any more complete
If a rose by any other name
Could ever smell as sweet

The answer's no

She hears a knock three times on the window
Baby, that's how you know
It either isn't or it is and then it's over
Baby, that's how it goes
Romeo, Romeo, you better turn off your phone


The world was tinted violet by
The sunrise and smog
As his fingers traced the distance
Between home and this block
It said it's thirty-seven minutes if
He opted to walk
Until the red pin once again was
Covered by the blue dot
His eyes were set on Juliet
His laces in knots
He starts to say "Babe, that was great
But now I gotta take off"
But there's a distance in her eyes
As if he's already gone
So he just leaves an extra $20
Hoping that's what she'd want
Then he goes to ring his girlfriend
Soon as he's in the hall
Says "Baby, there's no special reason!
I just miss you, is all
I'm stepping out to do some errands
And my reception might stall
So I'll just say 'I love you' now
In case the phone drops the call"

And there it goes

It either isn't or it is
And then it's over, baby
That's how it goes
Romeo, Romeo starts walking home alone
