Richard Thompson
Persuasion (2014)
[Verse 1]
You and I
Tempted by the promise of a different life
Time has fled
There's a constant battle running through my head
And I don't know what to do
'Cause I still believe
[Chorus]
After all the foolish things that we've been through
I could always make a start on something new
And I've always been a man who's open to
Persuasion
[Verse 2]
Blind romance
There'll be no half measures given half a chance
But we never learn
Trusting in the fire while thе cruel flame burned
And wе need to rebuild
What was never there
What got left behind
[Chorus]
After all the foolish things you put me through
I could always make a start on something new
And I've always been a man who's open to
Persuasion
[Bridge]
It's written in the my heart
So that everybody can see it
And it's written in my soul
After all, I still believe it (Oh, woah)
I still believe it (Don't you know?)
I still believe it
[Verse 3]
And I don't know what to do
'Cause I still believe
[Chorus]
After all the foolish things that we've been through
I could always make a start with something new
And I've always been a man who's open to
Persuasion
Persuasion
[Outro]
Oh, I still believe it
Oh yes, I still believe it
Oh, don't you know, don't you know, don't you know?
Oh, persuasion
Oh, persuasion
I still believe it
