"Persuasion" lyrics

"Persuasion"

You say your way is the best way
Well how many times, have I feel for that line?
But I don't have answers or say 'em in time
One day we shall have our swordplay
And rather than hide or not talk for a night
I might recognise the true size of my pride

And with a little persuasion or an emotional bribe
I could re-consider and take your side
With a little persuasion, with a little finesse
I'll comply with any lie you're happy to express

All out, drenched amidst the fall out
Oh licking our wounds, keeping the score
The only contacts we have any more
Fighting, sparks that keep igniting
Before all negotiations break down
I'll get my envoys to put it around that

With a little persuasion or an emotional bribe
I could re-consider and take your side
With a little persuasion, with a little finesse
I'll comply with any lie you're happy to express

We're hooked on confrontation
We both know that, it keeps us on our toes

With a little persuasion or an emotional bribe
I could re-consider and take your side
With a little persuasion, with a little finesse
I'll comply with any lie you're happy to express
With a little persuasion, with a little finesse
I'll comply with any lie you're happy to express
