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'

Passed the church and the steeple

The laundry on the hill

The billboards and the buildings

The 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

Since 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 carrousel

The people keep on prying

And wishing I was well

I said it's no occasion

It's no story I can tell

At my bedside empty pockets

A foot without a sock

Your body gets much closer

I fumble for the clock

Alarmed by the seduction

Oh 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 ask 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

Since you have gone

There's no other

Tempted by the fruit of another

Tempted but the truth is discovered
