That's the poetic and religious approach (particularly if you're an xian), but chances are that they weren't. It appears likely that different languages developed independently in different parts of the world, without a common ancestor, probably after the initial spread of homo erectus. But all Romance Languages have many Latin roots. (So does English although that is not a Romance language)

The national languages of this language family include: Catalan French Italian Portuguese Romanian (only Romance language found in Eastern Europe) Romansh Spanish Germanic languages are derived from the extinct language of Proto-Germanic, and can be found in the northern portion of Western Europe. The national languages of this language family include: Danish Dutch English* German Icelandic Luxembourgish Norwegian Swedish * - English is a recognized Germanic language, but many confuse it for a Romance language itself. This is because English is derived from the island of Great Britain. This island was first conquered by the Normans, and later by the French.

These languages have both influenced the English language greatly, although obviously the Germanic languages more so.
