"Don't put your faith in love, my boy," my father said to me, |
| [00:23.95] |
"I fear you'll find that love is like the lovely lemon tree." |
| [00:30.15] |
|
| [00:31.12] |
Chorus: |
| [00:31.63] |
Lemon tree, very pretty, and the lemon flower is sweet, |
| [00:37.70] |
But the fruit of the lemon is impossible to eat. |
| [00:43.27] |
Lemon tree, very pretty, and the lemon flower is sweet, |
| [00:49.12] |
But the fruit of the lemon is impossible to eat. |
| [00:54.31] |
|
| [01:08.51] |
We passed that summer lost in love, beneath the lemon tree, |
| [01:14.42] |
The music of her laughter hid my father's words from me. |
| [01:20.92] |
|
| [01:21.62] |
Chorus |
| [01:23.38] |
|
| [01:59.81] |
She left me for another, it's a common tale but true, |
| [02:04.77] |
A sadder man, but wiser now, I sing these words to you. |
| [02:12.76] |
|
| [02:13.46] |
Chorus |
| [02:14.51] |
|
| [02:39.82] |
Lemon tree Lemon tree |
| [02:50.97] |
Lemon tree Lemon tree |
