Lemon Tree Lemon Tree

The song describes a person who is bored and lonely on a rainy Sunday afternoon. They are waiting for someone but nothing happens, so they go driving around in their car, feeling lonely and wanting to change their perspective. All they can see is a yellow lemon tree. They wonder what happened to the blue sky they had been told about before. The repetition of the lemon tree and wondering suggests being stuck in a cycle of loneliness and isolation.

Lemon Tree Lemon Tree

I'm sitting here in the boring room I'm sitting here in the boring room
It's just another rainy Sunday afternoon It's just another rainy Sunday afternoon
I'm wasting my time I'm wasting my time
I got nothing to do I got nothing to do
I'm hanging around I'm hanging around
I'm waiting for you I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens and I wonder But nothing ever happens and I wonder

I'm driving around in my car I'm driving around in my car


I'm driving too fast I'm driving too fast

I'm driving too far I'm driving too far


I'd like to change my point of view I'd like to change my point of view
I feel so lonely I feel so lonely
I'm waiting for you I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens and I wonder But nothing ever happens and I wonder

I wonder how I wonder how


I wonder why I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree
I'm turning my head up and down I'm turning my head up and down
I'm turning turning turning turning turning around I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree

I'm sitting here I'm sitting here


I miss the power I miss the power
I'd like to go out taking a shower I'd like to go out taking a shower
But there's a heavy cloud inside my head But there's a heavy cloud inside my head
I feel so tired I feel so tired
Put myself into bed Put myself into bed
While nothing ever happens and I wonder While nothing ever happens and I wonder

Isolation is not good for me Isolation is not good for me


Isolation I don't want to sit on the lemon-tree Isolation I don't want to sit on the lemon-tree

I'm steppin' around in the desert of joy I'm steppin' around in the desert of joy
Baby anyhow I'll get another toy Baby anyhow I'll get another toy
And everything will happen and you wonder And everything will happen and you wonder

I wonder how I wonder how


I wonder why I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree
I'm turning my head up and down I'm turning my head up and down
I'm turning turning turning turning turning around I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree
And I wonder, wonder And I wonder, wonder

I wonder how I wonder how


I wonder why I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see, and all that I can see, and all And all that I can see, and all that I can see, and all
that I can see that I can see
Is just a yellow lemon-tree Is just a yellow lemon-tree
