When I was just a lad of ten, my father said to me, |
[00:12.12] |
"Come here and take a lesson from the lovely lemon tree." |
[00:17.41] |
"Don't put your faith in love, my boy", my father said to me, |
[00:23.01] |
"I fear you'll find that love is like the lovely lemon tree." |
[00:30.01] |
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet |
[00:36.41] |
but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat. |
[00:42.11] |
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet |
[00:48.01] |
but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat. |

One day beneath the lemon tree, my love and I did lie |
[01:02.01] |
A girl so sweet that when she smiled the stars rose in the sky. |
[01:07.01] |
We passed that summer lost in love beneath the lemon tree |
[01:13.01] |
the music of her laughter hid my father's words from me: |
[01:20.01] |
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet |
[01:27.01] |
but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat. |
[01:33.01] |
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet |
[01:39.01] |
but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat. |

One day she left without a word. She took away the sun. |
[01:52.01] |
And in the dark she left behind, I knew what she had done. |
[01:58.01] |
She'd left me for another, it's a common tale but true. |
[02:04.01] |
A sadder man but wiser now I sing these words to you: |
[02:12.01] |
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet |
[02:19.01] |
but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat. |
[02:25.01] |
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet |
[02:31.01] |
but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat. |
