Persuasion Lyrics

Patti Smith

What is the system that gets around? Recruits hearts with its timeless rhythm The young glow but old men know It's all a part of some crazy schism
Comin' on like the dawn, unrelentin' light Streets thick with its radiatin' It's all a glow but we all know True love is so complicated
Feelin' funny, don't know why I'm on a plane circlin' high Equation, persuasion It's just persuasion
Who needs the body that has nobody? Go through life with nobody at all It come and go where the wind blow When persuasion comes to call
Feelin' funny, don't know why I'm on a plane flying too high Invasion, persuasion It's just persuasion It's just persuasion It's just persuasion
Got me reelin' don't know why I'm on a plane circling high Equation, persuasion Got the feeling I'm runnin' in place Caught in the orbit of the human race Invasion, persuasion It's just persuasion It's just persuasion It's just persuasion
Who needs the body that has nobody? Who needs the rise without the fall? Who needs illusion without beauty? Who needs the system that's no system at all?
Hey scout, there's no equation You can't prepare for the heart's invasion You can't prepare for the heart's invasion Love is its own persuasion Love is its own persuasion Love has its own persuasion
