When I was just a lad of ten, my father said to me,[00:00:06]
"Come here and take a lesson from the lovely lemon tree."[00:00:12]
"Don't put your faith in love, my boy", my father said to me,[00:00:17]
"I fear you'll find that love is like the lovely lemon tree."[00:00:23]
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet[00:00:30]
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.[00:00:36]
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet[00:00:42]
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.[00:00:48]
One day beneath the lemon tree, my love and I did lie[00:00:55]
A girl so sweet that when she smiled the stars rose in the sky.[00:01:02]
We passed that summer lost in love beneath the lemon tree[00:01:07]
The music of her laughter hid my father's words from me:[00:01:13]
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet[00:01:20]
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.[00:01:27]
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet[00:01:33]
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.[00:01:39]
One day she left without a word. She took away the sun.[00:01:46]
And in the dark she left behind, I knew what she had done.[00:01:52]
She'd left me for another, it's a common tale but true.[00:01:58]
A sadder man but wiser now I sing these words to you:[00:02:04]
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet[00:02:12]
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.[00:02:19]
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet[00:02:25]
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.[00:02:31]
Lemon tree...[00:02:38]
