Lyrics
Sounds Like Shakespeare
I remember being 15 and shy
When a pretty girl caught my eye
Sittin beside her in English class
Sure made me get distracted
I never finished the books we read
But I loved studying her long tan legs
The hours seem longer longing for her love
I didn’t think I had a chance with her
Chorus:
And when she said,”hi, how are you”
It felt like the mountains moved
Speaking so eloquently,
Like Juliet on her balcony
Every word from her lips felt silky (The words came to her so easy)
Cause everything she said
Sounded like Shakespeare
Yeah, it sounded like Shakespeare to me
Back then I never would have ever believed
Another rose could smell so sweet
But I realized when I met my wife
That I’d never really loved
Anyone before that night
Her eyes looked like an azure sea
They drew me in like a lighthouse beacon
Now my love for her is twice as deep
Chorus:
Every time she says,”hi, how are you”
It feels like the mountains moved
Speaking so eloquently
Like Juliet on her balcony
The words come to her so easy
Then again everything she says
Sounds like Shakespeare
Yeah, it sounds like Shakespeare to me
Bridge:
We took things slow to make it last
Cause lovers stumble when they run too fast
I still love when I think back
Chorus:
Every time she says,”hi, how are you”
It feels like the mountains moved
Speaking so eloquently
Like Juliet on her balcony
The words come to her so easy
Then again everything she says
Sounds like Shakespeare
Yeah, it sounds like Shakespeare to me
Tag:
No matter what she says
It sounds like Shakespeare to me
