When I was just a lad of ten |
[00:10.390] |
My father said to me; |
[00:13.070] |
Come here and learn a lesson |
[00:15.180] |
From the lovely lemon tree: |
[00:18.520] |
Don't put your faith in love, my boy |
[00:21.260] |
My father said to me, |
[00:24.170] |
I fear you'll find that love Is like |
[00:26.890] |
The lovely lemon tree. |
[00:30.670] |
|
[00:30.950] |
Lemon tree very pretty |
[00:34.070] |
And the lemon flower is sweet |
[00:36.860] |
But the fruit of the poor lemon |
[00:39.680] |
Is impossible to eat. |
[00:42.740] |
|
[00:43.060] |
Lemon tree very pretty |
[00:45.740] |
And the lemon flower is sweet |
[00:48.770] |
But the fruit of the poor lemon |
[00:51.640] |
Is impossible to eat. |
[00:55.230] |
|
[00:57.300] |
Beneath the lemon tree, one day |
[00:59.850] |
My love and I did lie, |
[01:02.950] |
A girl so sweet that when she smiled |
[01:05.790] |
The sun rose in the sky. |
[01:08.430] |
|
[01:08.900] |
We passed the summer |
[01:10.350] |
Lost in love beneath the lemon tree, |
[01:14.390] |
The music of her laughter |
[01:16.520] |
Hid my fathers words from me. |
[01:20.570] |
|
[01:20.980] |
Lemon tree very pretty |
[01:24.250] |
And the lemon flower is sweet |
[01:27.090] |
But the fruit of the poor lemon |
[01:30.110] |
Is impossible to eat. |
[01:32.890] |
|
[01:33.210] |
Lemon tree very pretty |
[01:36.010] |
And the lemon flower is sweet |
[01:38.910] |
But the fruit of the poor lemon |
[01:41.730] |
Is impossible to eat. |
[01:45.000] |
|
[01:45.930] |
One day she left without a word |
[01:50.630] |
She took away the sun |
[01:53.270] |
And in the dark she left behind |
[01:55.890] |
I knew what she had done. |
[01:58.910] |
|
[01:59.150] |
She left me for another, |
[02:01.230] |
It's a common tale but true. |
[02:04.280] |
A sadder man but wiser now |
[02:07.560] |
I sing these words to you. |
[02:11.480] |
|
[02:11.760] |
Lemon tree very pretty |
[02:14.660] |
And the lemon flower is sweet |
[02:17.610] |
But the fruit of the poor lemon |
[02:20.630] |
Is impossible to eat. |
[02:23.390] |
Lemon tree very pretty |

[02:32.510] |
Is impossible to eat. |
[02:35.340] |
|
[02:35.730] |
