Lyrics for Almost Persuaded

Last night, all alone in a bar-room 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
