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 (keep calling) and 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 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 

Hating to be untrue 

I asked of my reflection 

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 truth of another 

Tempted and the truth is discovered

Tempted by the fruit of another 

Tempted but the truth is discovered
