| 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. Pass 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 on grabbing, ain't 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 |
