Persuasion
What is the system that gets around
Recruits hearts with its timeless rhythm
The young glow, but old men know
It's all a part of some crazy schism
Coming on like the dawn, unrelenting light
Streets thick with its radiating
It's all a glow but we all know
True love is so complicated
Feeling funny, don't know why
I'm on a plane, circling high
Equation, persuasion
It's just persuasion
What is the body that has nobody
Go through life with nobody at all
It come and go where the wind blow
When persuasion, come to call
Feeling funny, don't know why
I'm on a plane, flying too high
Equation, persuasion
It's just persuasion
It's just persuasion
It's just persuasion
Got me reeling, don't know why
I'm on a plane, circling high
Equation, persuasion
Got the feeling, I'm running in place
Caught in the orbit of the human race
Equation, persuasion
It's just persuasion
It's just persuasion
It's just persuasion
What's the body that has nobody
Who's the rise without the fall
What's illusion without beauty
What's the system, that's no system at all
Hey Scout, there's no equation
You can't prepare for the heart's invasion
You can't prepare for the heart's invasion
Love is this, some more equation
Love is this, some more equation
Love is this, some more equation
Recruits hearts with its timeless rhythm
The young glow, but old men know
It's all a part of some crazy schism
Coming on like the dawn, unrelenting light
Streets thick with its radiating
It's all a glow but we all know
True love is so complicated
Feeling funny, don't know why
I'm on a plane, circling high
Equation, persuasion
It's just persuasion
What is the body that has nobody
Go through life with nobody at all
It come and go where the wind blow
When persuasion, come to call
Feeling funny, don't know why
I'm on a plane, flying too high
Equation, persuasion
It's just persuasion
It's just persuasion
It's just persuasion
Got me reeling, don't know why
I'm on a plane, circling high
Equation, persuasion
Got the feeling, I'm running in place
Caught in the orbit of the human race
Equation, persuasion
It's just persuasion
It's just persuasion
It's just persuasion
What's the body that has nobody
Who's the rise without the fall
What's illusion without beauty
What's the system, that's no system at all
Hey Scout, there's no equation
You can't prepare for the heart's invasion
You can't prepare for the heart's invasion
Love is this, some more equation
Love is this, some more equation
Love is this, some more equation
