Lyrics
[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
[Verse 2]
I don't know what to do
'Cause I still believe
After all the foolish things that we've been through
I will always be a man who's open to
Persuasion
[Verse 3]
Blind romance
There'll be no half measures given half a chance
But we never learn
Trusting in the fire while the cruel flame burns
[Verse 4]
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 a start on something new
And I'll always be a man who's open to
Persuasion
[Verse 5]
And it's written in my heart
So that everybody can see it, hey
And it's written in my soul
After all, I still believe it, yeah
[Verse 6]
I still believe it, c'mon, c'mon
I still believe it, yeah
I still believe
[Verse 7]
I don't know what to do 'cause I still believe
After all the foolish things you put me through
I could always make a start with something new
And I'll always be a man who's open to
Persuasion, persuasion
[Verse 8]
I'm open to
Persuasion
[Verse 9]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I still believe, I still believe
Still believe it
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Persuasion)
(Persuasion)
(Persuasion)
