Lemon tree

 


When I was just a lad of ten, my father said to me,
Come here and learn a lesson from the lovely lemon tree.
Don't put your faith in love, my boy, my father said to me,
I fear 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 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 the 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, she left without a word. She took away the sun.
And in the dark she left behind, I knew what she had done.
She’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.

Lemon tree... lemon tree… Lemon tree... lemon tree…
Lemon tree... lemon tree... Lemon tree... lemon tree… Lemon tree…

從故事到記事雖然隻有一字之差， 卻是一個質的飛躍， 應該說， 也是一種心境的變遷過程吧？！

嗬嗬，這小貓也太可愛啦，可這不該是個挺悲哀的故事嗎？怎麽唱

得那麽歡快呀？噢，明白了，唱的跟兒歌似的，像秋哥這樣的小孩

才能記得住呀，嗬嗬嗬！
