Romeo + Juliet Lyrics

Romeo + Juliet Soundtrack Lyrics

Two households, both alike in dignity,
In fair Verona, where we lay our scene,
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life
---
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Juliet and her Romeo

Based on William Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet, the film Romeo + Juliet released in 1996 was a spectacular musical. This page includes lyrics from the songs on the CD soundtrack Romeo + Juliet Vol 1 and also lyrics from "When Doves Cry" track which appears on Vol 2.
