Текст (слова) песни «Almost Persuaded»

(Billy Sherrill - Glenn Sutton)

Last night all alone in a barroom
Met a man who set my heart awhirl
He had a smile on his lips and coal black hair
And eyes that would tempt any girl.

Then he came and sat down at my table
And as he placed his warm hand in mine
I found myself wanting to hold him
For temptation was flowin' 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
Come with me, let me 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...
