Squeeze - Tempted Lyrics
(difford/tilbrook)I bought a toothbrush, some toothpasteA flannel for my facePyjamas, a hairbrushNew shoes and a caseI said to my reflectionLets get out of this placePast the church and the steepleThe laundry on the hillBillboards and the buildingsMemories of it stillKeep calling and callingBut forget it allI know I willTempted by the fruit of anotherTempted but the truth is discoveredWhats been going onNow that you have goneTheres no otherTempted by the fruit of anotherTempted but the truth is discoveredIm at the car park, the airportThe baggage carouselThe people keep on crowdingIm wishing I was wellI said its no occasionIts no story I could tellAt my bedside empty pocketA foot without a sockYour body gets much closerI fumble for the clockAlarmed by the seductionI wish that it would stopI bought a novel, some perfumeA fortune all for youBut its not my conscienceThat hates to be untrueI asked of my reflectionTell me what is there to do
