lemon tree - kingston trio lyrics
when i was just a little boy, my father said to me,
“come here and learn a lesson from the lovely lemon tree.
my son, it’s most important” my father said to me,
“to put your faith in what you feel and not in what you see.”
[chorus: x2]
lemon tree, very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet,
but the fruit of the poor lemon is a thing one cannot eat.
beneath that 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 p-ssed the summer lost in love beneath the lemon tree.
the music of her laughter hid my father’s words from me.
[chorus: x2]
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 words to you.
[chorus: x2]
