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 on crowding. I'm wishing I was well.
|
I said it's no occasion, it's no story I can tell.
|
At my bedside empty poket, 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.
|
(repeat
|
)
|
I bought a novel, some perfume, a fortune all for you.
|
But it's not my consciedce that hates to be untrue
|
I asked of my reflection thee me what is there to do
|
