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
