Les paroles de la chanson
« Rome wasn't built in a day »
Sam Cooke

(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)

Listen to me, honey now
How would Romeo feel if his Juliet
Had turned down his advances and played hard-to-get
He wouldn’t have let this bother him, I know
Because where there’s life, there’s hope

(chorus)

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
