Close your eyes my love Fill your sleep with dreams Words stray endlessly Flow like pouring rain Feel the time go by Till it slaps you in the face In your corner of the sky Where you leave me To answer my question Will I miss someone? Rome wasn't built in a day Wasn't built in a Rome wasn't built in a day Wasn't built in a daaaay Heeey hey hey hey Waiting for the dance With my best new American friend As she turns so graciously To see the state I'm in But oh how good it feels To walk away all regrets Now that's something for us to keep Here's something for us now Just like a thousand goodbyes Wipe the tears from your eyes Like I'm losing myself [Chorus] Rome wasn't built in a day Wasn't built in a day Oh paitions you've left me All she said was she never knew me at all [Chorus] Rome wasn't built in a day Wasn't built in a day When she left she left nothing in return [Chorus] Rome wasn't built in a day So I lay my head to rest now To say it simply When all escapes me At the bottom of the sea I found the love that left me [Chorus] Rome wasn't built in a day Wasn't built in a day Oh paitions come easy [Chorus] Rome wasn't built in a day Wasn't built in a day All she said was she never knew me at all [Chorus] Rome wasn't built in a day Wasn't built in a day But when she left she left nothing in return [Chorus] Rome wasn't built in a day Wasn't built in a day Wasn't built in a day Nothing in return
