[00:00:00] Lemon Tree - The Impressions

[00:00:00] Written by：Will Holt

[00:00:08] When I was just a lad of ten my father said to me

[00:00:16] Come here and take a lesson from the lovely lemon tree

[00:00:24] Don't put your faith in love my boy my father said to me

[00:00:32] I feel you'll find that love is like the lovely lemon tree

[00:00:44] Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet

[00:00:54] But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat

[00:01:02] Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet

[00:01:10] But the fruit of the poor lemon is a impossible to eat

[00:01:19] One day beneath the lemon tree my love and I did lie

[00:01:27] A girl so sweet that when she smiled the stars rose in the sky

[00:01:36] We passed that summer lost in love beneath the lemon tree

[00:01:44] The music of her laughter hid my father's words from me

[00:01:54] Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet

[00:02:05] But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat

[00:02:13] Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet

[00:02:21] But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat

[00:02:33] One day she left without a word

[00:02:41] She took away the sun and in the dark she left behind

[00:02:54] I knew what she had done

[00:03:01] She left me for another

[00:03:06] It's a common tale but true

[00:03:11] A sadder man but wiser now I sing these words to you

[00:03:21] Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet

[00:03:31] But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat

[00:03:40] Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet

[00:03:48] But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat
