Almost Persuaded Lyrics

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
