Romeo had his mind set
He was gonna win that Juliet
Gonna love her, don’t care how
It came at such a high cost
'Cause baby, they were star-crossed
It’s all that luck would allow
Johnny, when he found love
He caught himself a June bug
But catching lovers takes some time
When you’ve got a past life
Your children and your first wife
Well, Johnny had to walk that line
So every time my heart breaks
I tell myself that heartache
Just ain’t gonna change my mind
The greatest of all endings
Has always been depending
On trouble in the storyline
Poe, he found the dark side
All the things the heart hides
In searching for his lost Lenore
Every line about her showed
Though he was without her
She’d be with him evermore
Jack, he didn’t have long
He knew that he had done wrong
In taking someone else’s Rose
But if fate was gonna choose her
He knew he wouldn’t lose her
She said, «Jack, I’ll never let you go»
So every time my heart breaks
I tell myself that heartache
Just ain’t gonna change my mind
'Cause babe, our happy ending
Has always been depending
On trouble in the storyline
