Almost Persuaded

Last night, all alone in a bar-room
Met a man with a drink in his hand
He had baby blue eyes, coal-black hair
And a smile that a girl understands

Then he came and sat down at my table
And as he placed his hand over mine
I found myself wanting to kiss him
For temptation was flowing like wine

And I was almost persuaded
To strip myself of my pride
Almost persuaded
To push my conscience aside

Then we danced, and he whispered, "I need you
Let me take you away and be your man"
Then I looked into his eyes and I saw it
The reflection of my wedding band

And I was almost persuaded
To let strange lips lead me on
Almost persuaded
But your sweet love made me stop and go home
