SONG: THE LEMON TREE by Fool´s Garden

Now watch this video and complete the song below:

LEMON TREE By Fool's Garden

I' (1)_____________ here in a boring room

 it's just another rainy
Sunday afternoon

 I'(2)______________ my time

 I got nothing to do
I'(3) ________________around

 I'(4)_______________ for you
But nothing ever happens- and I wonder

I'(5) ________________ around in my car

 I'(5) __________ too fast
I' (5)_________________ too far

I'd like to change my point of view
I feel so lonely

 I'(6) _______________  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 tall 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

I'(6)__________________ here I miss the power I'd like to go out
taking a shower but there's a heavy cloud in side 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'_______________' around in a desert of joy

 Baby anyhow I'll get another toy

and every thing will happen-

and you'll wonder

 

I wonder how I wonder why

yesterday you told me
'bout the blue blue sky

and all tall 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
