Lemon Tree

歌詞

When I was just a lad of ten My father said to me "Come here and take a lesson From the lovely lemon tree Don't put your faith in love, my boy" My father said to me "I fear you"ll find that love is like The lovely lemon tree" Lemon tree very pretty And the lemon flowers is sweet But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat Lemon tree verry pretty And the lemon flowers is sweet But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat One day beneath the lemon tree My love and I did lie A girl so sweet thst when she smiled The stars rose in the sky We passed that summer lost in love Beneath the lemon tree The music of her laughter Hid my father's words from me Lemon tree very pretty And the lemon flowers is sweet But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat Lemon tree very pretty And the lemon flowers is sweet But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat One day she left without a word She took away the sun And in the dark she'd left behind I knew what she had done She'd left me for another It's a common tale but true A sadder man but wiser now I sing these words to you Lemon tree verry pretty And the lemon flowers is sweet But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat Lemon tree very pretty And the lemon flowers is sweet But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat Lemon tree Lemon tree Lemon tree Lemon tree
