Almost Persuaded
Last night all alone in a bar room
Met a girl with a drink in her hand
She had ruby red lips and cold black hair
And eyes that could tempt any man
Then she came and sat down at my table
And as she placed her soft hands in mine
I found myself wanting to kiss her
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 she whispered I need you
Take me away from here and be my man
Then I looked into her eyes and I saw it
The reflection of my wedding bandAnd I was almost persuaded
To let strange lips lead me on
Almost persuaded but your sweet love made me stop
And go home
END
