Tempted

Lyrics

I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste
 A flannel for my face
 Pyjamas, a hairbrush
 New shoes and a case
 I said to my reflection
 Let's get out of this place
 Past the church and the steeple
 The laundry on the hill
 Billboards and the buildings
 Memories of it still
 Keep calling and calling
 But forget it all
 I know I will
 Tempted by the fruit of another
 Tempted but the truth is discovered
 What's been going on
 Now that you have gone
 There's no other
 Tempted by the fruit of another
 Tempted but the truth is discovered
 I'm at the car park, the airport
 The baggage carousel
 The people keep on crowding
 I'm wishing I was well
 I said it's no occasion
 It's no story I could tell
 At my bedside empty pocket
 A foot without a sock
 Your body gets much closer
 I fumble for the clock
 Alarmed by the seduction
 I wish that it would stop
 I bought a novel, some perfume
 A fortune all for you
 But it's not my conscience
 That hates to be untrue
 I asked of my reflection
 Tell me what is there to do
