Star Crossed Lovers

Why must I leave you, to go away
My joy will turn into sorrow, on that sad day
This happiness we found, in each others arms
Gave our parents, much cause for alarm

We are not from the same side of town
Your side is up, my side is down
Our love's story seems to be wrong
A love like ours only happens, in a love story song

If fate is against us, just you and I
Then why do we love, why do we try?
Star crossed lovers, is what we are
No matter we thought our love could go far

If our loves wrong, why should they care
This love we feel, seems truly there
Let them leave us alone, so we can be free
For only God knows, love's eternity
