Persuasion

Teddy Thompson · Other Songs - Teddy Thompson

You and I tempted by the promise of a different life

Time has fled, there's a constant battle runnin' through my head

And I don't know what to do

Cause I still believe



After all the foolish things you put me through

I could always make start on something new

And I've always been a man who's open to persuasion



Blind romance, there'll be no half measures given half a chance

But we never learn, trusting in the fire while the cool flame burns

And we need to rebuild

What was never there, what got left behind



After all the foolish things that we've been through

I could always make start on something new

And I'll always be a man who's open to persuasion



And it's written in my heart

So that everybody can see it



And it's written in my soul

After all I still believe it, yeah (4x)



And I don't know what to do, 'cause I still believe

After all the foolish things you put me through

I could always make start on something new

And I'll always be a man who's open to persuasion, persuasion
