|
(Chorus) |
|
Don't, honey don't go away, no no |
|
Don't you hear, don't you hear |
|
what I say? what I say |
|
Give me time, give me time |
|
I'm gonna make your love as strong as mine |
|
But I know Rome wasn't built in a day |
|
Now you know that I love you, dear with all my heart |
|
I know that you didn't love from the start |
|
That I'm planting a little seed in your heart, I know |
|
and it just needs time to grow, baby |
|
(Chorus) |
|
Don't, honey don't go away, no no |
|
Don't you hear, don't you hear |
|
what I say? what I say |
|
Give me time, give me time |
|
I'm gonna make your love as strong as mine |
|
But I know Rome wasn't built in a day |
|
Listen to me, honey now |
|
How would Romeo feel if his Juliet |
|
Had turned down his advances and played hard-to-get |
|
Because where there's life, there's hope |
|
(Chorus) |
|
Don't, honey don't go away, no no |
|
Don't you hear, don't you hear |
|
what I say? what I say |
|
Give me time, give me time |
|
I'm gonna make your love as strong as mine |
|
But I know Rome wasn't built in a day |
|
Don't you hear me tellin' you that Rome wasn't built |
|
in a day |
|
Don't you realize that Rome wasn't built in a day |
