Almost Persuaded

Last night all alone in a barroom 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
