Lemon tree Lyrics

You must really want to tear me down

Trash my reputation

Turn me into nothing

Curse the very earth where I was born

But if I may just say

I feel the same way about you

Went to the lawyer

Found it disconcerting

Because his frank assessment

Was that the music would all be gone

Along with the money

Along with my daughter

Who's everything

Great expectations

Turning into nothing

Like watering the concrete

And watching for some little shoots to bloom

From the wreck of my life

The twice each week I see my child

If there's a chance that wet cement could yield a garden

I'll pasture my days

As Summer fades to Autumn

I become a lemon tree

Bitter above all

Just a little lemon tree

My leaves begin to fall

I'm a little lemon tree

Bitter above all

Just a little lemon tree

All my life I thought I would be evergreen

Bitter above all

Just a little lemon tree

Just a little lemon tree
