Rome wasn't built in a day

It didn't happen overnight

The stars didn't get to shine that way

Just by turnin' on the lights

And I'm not any different

God knows I'm not

Yeah I just need a little more time

To pick up the pieces

So I can put it back together baby

It could take forever but I will I will

Little by little

Little by little

It's best for you to walk away

I can't look you in the eye

Cause I can't be the woman

That you need be to be tonight

I wish it was that simple

But God knows it's not

Yeah I just need a little more time

To pick up the pieces

So I can put it back together baby

It could take forever but I will I will

Little by little brick by brick

Little by little bit by bit

I'm getting better the closer I get

Little by little by little

Yeah I just need a little more time

To pick up the pieces

So I can put it back together baby

It could take forever but I will I will

Little by little

Little by little

Little by little

I'll get there little by little by little
