The Young Romans Lemon Trees song lyrics

You can't decide

If you're going to fly or hold on

To your bittersweet lemon trees

Bittersweet lemon trees

You're dignified

And you don't belong in my present home

With your understated royalty

Understated royalty

I don't say these things with ease

I don't want to lose you

Don't want to let you go

But I never thought that I'd be the one to say so

No, no

It's better to fall down

Better to fail nearly every time

Than to know I had you here

And that you never tried

Bittersweet lemon tree

You settled down before you ever found a way out

It's a cardinal catastrophe, cardinal catastrophe

And here we are, running out of water in the middle of a drought

Is this the way it's supposed to be, this the way it's supposed to be?

I don't say these things with ease

I don't want to lose you

Don't want to let you go

But I never thought that I'd be the one to stay so, no, no

It's better to fall down, better to fail nearly every time,

Than to know I had you here, and that you never tried.

Bittersweet lemon tree.

I don't want to lose you,

Don't want to let you go.

But I never thought that I'd be the one to stay so...

I don't want to lose you,

Don't want to let you go.

But I never thought that I'd be the one to stay so, no, no.

It's better to fall down, better to fail nearly every time,

Than to know I had you here, and that you never tried.

Bittersweet lemon tree.
