Almost Persuaded

Last night, all alone in a bar room
Met a girl with a drink in her hand
She had ruby-red lips, coal black hair
And eyes that would tempt any man

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 I 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 (Stop and go home)
