Someone said many years ago,
wasn't built in a day
Just one thing you ought to know,
Rome wasn't built in a day
Hold on now, don't hurry me,
I gotta make sure
So, honey, can't you see
Love's so great,
needs time to grow
Rome wasn't built in a day
I can be a slave to you
Whatever you might say
I will never say I do
Set me free right away
All roads lead to love, I know
You've gotta take one,
the way to go
Oh, take your time, love is new
Rome wasn't built in a day
Can't you hear the
Romans singing?
Singing and a -working too
That's why I'm a -working
and a -singing
When in Rome do as the
Romans do
Love in haste and wonder how
Our hearts have gone astray
If you've tears, then cry them out,
for that's the price you pay
Roman's friends and lovers, too,
would say the same like
I'm a -tellin' you
Don't you rush that final vow,
Rome wasn't built in a day
Roman's friends and lovers, too,
would say the same like
I'm a -tellin' you
Don't you rush that final bow.
Rome wasn't built in a day.
Rome wasn't built in a day.
Rome wasn't built in a day.
