Almost Persuaded

Last night all alone in a barroom

Met a man with a drink in his hand

He had big brown eyes and coal black hair

And a smile that a girl understands

Then he came and sat down at my table

And as he placed his hands 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 weddin' 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
