Last night
All alone in a barroom
Met the 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
In her eyes
Then I saw it
The reflection
Of my wedding band
And I was almost persuaded
To let
Soft lips lead me on
Almost persuaded
But your sweet love
Made me stop and go home
