When I was just a lad of ten my father said to me

Come here and learn a lesson from the lovely lemon tree

Dont put your faith in love my boy my father said to me

I fear youll find that love is like the lovely lemon tree

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

Beneath the lemon tree one day my love and I did a lie

A girl so sweet that when she smiled the sun rose in the sky

We passed that summer lost in love beneath the lemon tree

The music of her laughter hid my fathers 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 she left without a word she took away the sun

And in the dark she left behind I knew what she had done

Shed left me for another its 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
