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 flower is sweet but the fruit of the
Lemon is impossible to eat. Lemon Tree very pretty and the lemon flower is
Sweet but the fruit of the lemon is impossible to eat
One day beneath the Lemon Tree, my love and I did lie A girl so sweet that
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 flower is sweet but the fruit of the
Lemon is impossible to eat. Lemon Tree very pretty and the lemon flower is
Sweet but the fruit of the lemon is impossible to eat
One day she left without a word. She took away the sun
And in the dark she left behind, I knew what she had done
She'd left me for another, it's a common tail but true
A sadder man but wiser now I sing these words to you
Lemon Tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet but the fruit of the
Lemon is impossible to eat. Lemon Tree very pretty and the lemon flower is
Sweet but the fruit of the lemon is impossible to eat
