Tempted (94)

Lyrics

I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste, a flannel for my face
 Pajamas, 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
 The 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 carpark, 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 can 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
 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 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?"
 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
 Tempted by the fruit of another
 Tempted but the truth is discovered
 Tempted by the fruit of another
 Tempted but the truth is discovered
 Tempted by the fruit of another
 Tempted but the truth is discovered
 Tempted by the fruit of another
