Перевод песни Joe Cocker - Tempted

I bought a toothbrush and toothpaste

A flannel for my face

Pajamas, a hairbrush, new shoes and a case

I said to my reflection “You’ll be 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

Since you’ve been gone, there’s no other

Tempted by the fruit of another

Tempted but the truth is discovered

I’m at the car park at the airport

The baggage carousel

The people keep on crowding,

wishing I was well

I said it’s no occasion,

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

and I wish that 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

Bought a novel, some perfume

A fortune all for you

But though it’s not my conscience

that hates 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
