Lemon Tree (Album Version)

	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.
	beneath the lemon tree One day
	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 left me for another,
	it＇s a common tale but true,
	A sadder man, but wiser now,
	I sing these songs for 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.
