2.I remember back when it was still cool to dance 
  To a band in tight pants
  Even if they were trash
  Juliet was expert at the withering glance
  That could turn you to ash but you’d still take that chance
  I thought that I was funny
  I probably was
  When she asked me for money I said you’re the boss
  You know I’m sorry honey, I didn’t count the cost
  Of the silly things I did
  The things that I hid

3.Well I know somewhere, sometime, I’ll meet her again
  It won’t be as lovers, but still more than friends
  Maybe then I’ll ask her if she remembers when
  She could keep me smiling
  Just with her violin
