Well I see you in the morning
Putting on your pretty clothes
And I watch you do your makeup
Like they do in all those fashion shows
Then you turn to me so that I can see

If you put your self together right
Then you go away and you´re gone all day
But I know you´re coming home tonight
And when you´re home, darling all you´ve got to be is you
But when in Rome, do as the Romans do

Well it´s alright if you´re tired when your day is done
You can see when you look at me, you´re not the only one
It´s a cold, cruel world for a working girl
But you can´t let them see you cry
It´s a fact of life, now a man and wife
Work full time to just get by
And when we´re home all it´s gonna be is me and you
But when in Rome, do as the Romans do

I´ve done some strange things I never thought I´d do before
But if the strain brings happiness, more or less...

Then I don´t mind masquerading with all those other fools
I don´t mind the games I´m playing,
Because I´ve learned the rules
And when times are tough, I´ve got just enough
If you´re standing right by my side
Darling more and more I get hungry for
All the ways you keep me satisfied
On our own there ain´t nothing that we can´t get thru
But when in Rome, do as the Romans do

Then I don´t mind masquerading with all those other fools
I don´t mind the games I´m playing,
Because I´ve learned the rules
It doesn´t matter when we´re home, all alone
All we´ve got to be is me and you
On our own there ain´t nothing that we can´t get thru
But when in Rome, do as the Romans do
