Lemon Tree
[00:00.65] ♫
[00:05.44] When I was just a lad of ten
[00:09.16] My father said to me
[00:11.82] "Come here and take a lesson
[00:13.95] From the lovely lemon tree"
[00:17.40] "Don't put your faith in love
[00:19.79] My boy", my father said to me
[00:22.98] "I fear you'll find that love
[00:25.64] Is like the lovely lemon tree."
[00:29.36] Lemon tree very pretty
[00:33.60] And the lemon flower is sweet
[00:36.52] But the fruit of the poor lemon
[00:39.19] Is impossible to eat
[00:42.37] Lemon tree very pretty
[00:45.30] And the lemon flower is sweet
[00:47.95] But the fruit of the poor lemon
[00:50.87] Is impossible to eat
[00:54.87] One day beneath the lemon tree
[00:58.86] My love and I did lie
[01:01.25] A girl so sweet
[01:03.10] That when she smiled
[01:04.44] The stars rose in the sky
[01:07.09] We passed that summer
[01:08.68] Lost in love
[01:10.01] Beneath the lemon tree
[01:12.93] The music of her laughter
[01:15.32] Hid my father's words from me
[01:19.58] Lemon tree very pretty
[01:24.11] And the lemon flower is sweet
[01:27.30] But the fruit of the poor lemon
[01:29.96] Is impossible to eat
[01:32.87] Lemon tree very pretty
[01:35.79] And the lemon flower is sweet
[01:38.71] But the fruit of the poor lemon
[01:41.37] Is impossible to eat
[01:45.89] One day she left without a word
[01:49.62] She took away the sun
[01:52.27] And in the dark she left behind
[01:54.93] I knew what she had done
[01:57.86] She'd left me for another
[02:00.79] It's a common tale but true
[02:03.70] A sadder man but wiser now
[02:07.16] I sing these words to you
[02:11.14] Lemon tree very pretty
