Almost Persuaded Lyrics

Last night all alone in a barroom I met a girl with a
drink in her hand
She had ruby red lips and coal black hair and eyes that
would 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 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
