Lyrics Persuasion - 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
Coming
on
like
the
dawn
unrelenting
light
Streets
thick
with
its
radiating
It's
all
aglow
but
we
all
know
True
love
is
so
complicated
Feeling
funny
don't
know
why
On
a
plane
circling
high
Equation
persuasion
It's
just
persuasion
What
is
the
body
that
has
nobody
Go
through
life
with
nobody
at
all
It
come
and
go
where
the
wind
blow
When
persuasion
come
to
call
Got
me
reeling
don't
know
why
I'm
on
a
plane
circling
high
Equation
persuasion
Got
the
feeling
I'm
running
in
place
Caught
in
the
orbit
of
the
human
race
Equation
persuasion
It's
just
persuasion
It's
jut
persuasion
It's
just
persuasion
What
is
the
body
that
has
nobody
What
is
the
rise
without
the
fall
What
is
illusion
without
beauty
What
is
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
