LEMON TREE By Fool's Garden

I'm ______________ here in a boring room it's just another rainy Sunday afternoon I'm ______________ my time I got nothing to do
I'm hanging around I'm ______________ for you
But nothing ever happens- and I wonder
I'm ______________ around in my car I'm ______________ too fast I'm ______________ too far I'd like to change my point of view I feel so lonely I'm ______________ for you
But nothing ever happens- and I wonder
I wonder how I wonder why yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky and all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree
I'm ______________ my head up and down I'm ______________ ______________ ______________ ______________ ______________ around
And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree
I'm ______________ here I miss the power I'd like to go out ______________ 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 ______________ 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 'bout the blue blue sky and all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree I'm ______________ my head up and down I'm ______________ ______________ ______________ ______________ ______________ around
And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree
