Rome Wasn't Built in a Day Lyrics

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 DAY

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 FEELS TO WALK AWAY ALL REGRETS
THAT'S SOMETHING FOR US TO KEEP
THAT'S SOMETHING FOR US NOW

JUST LIKE A THOUSAND GOODBYE WIPE THE TEARS FROM YOUR EYES
LIKE I'M LOSING MYSELF
(ROME WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY)
OH PATIENCE YOU'VE LEFT ME
(ROME WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY)
ALL SHE SAID WAS SHE NEVER KNEW ME AT ALL
(ROME WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY)
WHEN SHE LEFT SHE LEFT NOTHING IN RETURN
(ROME WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY)
SO I LAY MY HEAD TO REST NOW
TO SAY IT'S SIMPLY WHEN ALL ESCAPES ME
AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA I FOUND THE LOVE THAT LEFT ME

(ROME WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY)
OH PATIENCE COME EASY
(ROME WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY)
ALL SHE SAID WAS SHE NEVER KNEW ME AT ALL
(ROME WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY)
BUT WHEN SHE LEFT SHE LEFT NOTHING IN RETURN
(ROME WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY)
WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY

NOTHING IN RETURN
