Lemon Tree

Lemon Tree -The Brothers Four （兄弟）
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 lie
A girl so sweet that when she smiled
The sun rose in the sky
We passed the 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
She 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
Lemon tree lemon tree
Lemon tree lemon tree
Lemon tree lemon tree
Lemon tree lemon tree
