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

I'm driving around in my car(
I'm driving too fast, I'm driving too far
I'd like to change my point of view
I feel so lonely, I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens, and I wonder

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

Sing! Da, da da dee da, etc.

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

Isolation, is not good for me
Isolation, I don't want to sit on a lemon tree
I'm stepping around in a desert of joy
Baby anyhow I'll get another toy
And everything will happen, and you'll wonder

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

And I wonder, wonder, I wonder how I wonder why
Yesterday you told me about the blue, blue sky
And all that I can see (dit dit dit)
And all that I can see (dit dit dit)
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree


Лимоное дерево
художественный перевод песни
от Елены Ключарёвой

Сижу я в комнате пустой
По крышам барабанит дождь простой
Весь день валяю дурака
Быть может, ты придешь, меня взбодришь слегка
Но дверь опять закрыта
Интересно...

Не радуюсь лихой езде
Куда мне ехать – я бывал везде
Хочу повеселеть опять
С тобой смеяться, петь и танцевать,
Но дверь опять закрыта
Интересно...

Скажи, зачем вчера с утра
Ты мне сказала : «Как прекрасны небеса
