Lyrics

We were both young when I first saw you, I close my eyes and the flash back starts.

I’m stand in’ there,

on a bal co ny in sum mer air.

See the lights, see the par ty, the ball gowns.

See you make et your way through the crowd knew.

and say hel lo.

es cape this Lit tle did I tle know

that you were Ro me o.

I You were throw ing peb bles, and my dad dy said, “Stay a way from Ju li et.” And I was cry in’ on the stair case, was beg gin’ you, “Please don’t go.”

And I said, “Ro me o, take me some where we can be a lone, I’ll be wait ing.

All there’s left to do is run.

You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the prin cess.

It’s a love sto ry.

Ba by, just say yes.”

So I sneak out to the gar den to see you.

We keep qui et ’cause we’re dead if they knew.

So, close your eyes,

es cape this town for a lit tle while.

’Cause you were Ro me o, I was the scar let let ter and my dad dy said, “Stay a way from Ju li et.” But you were ev ’ry thing to me.

I was beg gin’ you, “Please don’t go.”

And I said, “Ro me o, take me some where we can be a lone, I’ll be wait ing.

All there’s left to do is run.

You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the prin cess.

It’s a love sto ry.

Ba by, just say yes.”

So Ba by, just say

yes.”

Love Story by Taylor Swift — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “Love Story by Taylor Swift in our color-coded kid songbook view — every note is colored by pitch (red C, orange D, yellow E, green F, blue G, purple A, pink B) and the lyrics sit directly under each note, so children can sing along while they play. The song is in the key of C at 120 BPM, a slightly more challenging arrangement — practice each phrase slowly first.

Tips for parents & teachers

  • Start at 50% tempo using the BPM control. Speed up only when your child can play through without stopping.
  • Turn on the metronome from the top bar to build steady rhythm.
  • Use the segmented OFF / C / 1 button to toggle note labels on the staff and keys — kids learn note names faster with letters showing.
  • Tap a measure number on the timeline to jump to a specific section for repeat practice.
