Lyrics

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

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

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

I'm sitting here
I miss the  
I'd like to go out taking a  
But there's a heavy   inside my head
I feel so  
Put myself into bed
Well nothing ever happens and I wonder

Isolation is not good for me
Isolation I don't want to sit on the lemon-tree

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

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

Meaning

The song writer told, that it has no meaning. He likes the sound of the word "lemon tree". He hope that nobody has to interpret it in school, because it is just a meaningless write-away.

He was waiting in the car for his girlfriend. She was finisching her make-up and he wrote the song. That is the whole story.
