Tempted

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

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 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 with 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 hated to be untrue

I asked of my reflection tell me what is there to do
