Rome Wasn't Built In a Day
You don't know it but I've made my mind up
You'll wind up in my arms
First I have to break down your resistance
to my charms
Yes darling
I know it won't be easy
But I won't stop until I find a way
Everybody knows that Rome wasn't built
in a day
How I'll make it happen I'm not certain
I'm working on a plan
And when I get it tight you'll believe I'm your man
You don't know it yet but you'll surrender
When I make my play
Everybody knows that Rome wasn't built in a day
I'll offer you protection
24 hours love and affection
It'll take time to make it right
Take a look at what the Pharaoh did
When he built his pyramid
Everybody knows that didn't spring up over night
There will be a celebration
And a silver band will play
Everybody knows that Rome wasn't built in a day
Everybody knows that Rome wasn't built in a day
You'll wind up in my arms
First I have to break down your resistance
to my charms
Yes darling
I know it won't be easy
But I won't stop until I find a way
Everybody knows that Rome wasn't built
in a day
How I'll make it happen I'm not certain
I'm working on a plan
And when I get it tight you'll believe I'm your man
You don't know it yet but you'll surrender
When I make my play
Everybody knows that Rome wasn't built in a day
I'll offer you protection
24 hours love and affection
It'll take time to make it right
Take a look at what the Pharaoh did
When he built his pyramid
Everybody knows that didn't spring up over night
There will be a celebration
And a silver band will play
Everybody knows that Rome wasn't built in a day
Everybody knows that Rome wasn't built in a day
