Lyrics

Lemon Tree
 When I was just a girl of ten my father said to me
 Come here and take a lemon.
 From the lovely lemon tree.
 Don't put your faith in love 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 poor lemon. Is impossible to eat.
 Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
 but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat. 
 One day beneath the lemon tree, my love and I did lie
 A boy 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 poor lemon is impossible to eat.
 Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
 but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat. 
 One day he left without a word. He took away the sun.
 And in the dark he left behind, I knew what she had done.
 He'd left me for another, it's a common tale but true.
 A sadder man but wiser now I sing these words to you: 
 Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
 but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
 Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
 but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
