Lemon Tree
Alle Farben Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's just another rainy Sunday afternoon
I'm wastin' my time, I got nothin' to do
I'm hangin' around, I'm waitin' for you
But nothing ever happens
I'm drivin' around in my car
I'm drivin' too fast, I'm drivin' too far
I'd like to change my point of view
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 anoter lemon tree
I'm turnin' my head up and down
I'm turnin, turnin', turnin', turnin', turnin' around
And all that I can see
Is just another lemon tree
(Sing) dah
Dah-dah-dah-dah, di-dah-dah
Dah-dah-dah-dah, di-dah-dah
Dah-di-di-dah
(Sing) dah
Dah-dah-dah-dah, di-dah-dah
Dah-dah-dah-dah, di-dah-dah
Dah-di-di-dah (dah-di-di-dah)
I'm sittin' here, I missed the power
I'd like to go out, takin' a shower
But there's a heavy cloud inside my head
I feel so tired, put myself into bed
Well, 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 another lemon tree
I'm turnin' my head up and down
I'm turnin', turnin', turnin', turnin', turnin' around
And all that I can see
Is just another lemon tree
And I wonder (wonder, wonder, wonder)
(Sing) dah
Dah-dah-dah-dah, di-dah-dah
Dah-dah-dah-dah, di-dah-dah
Dah-di-di-dah
(Sing) dah
Dah-dah-dah-dah, di-dah-dah
Dah-dah-dah-dah, di-dah-dah
Dah-di-di-dah
The lyrics to "Lemon Tree" by Alle Farben and Fools Garden capture the feeling of boredom and loneliness. The singer is sitting in a boring room on a rainy Sunday afternoon with nothing to do but wait for someone. They feel like they're wasting their time and want to change their point of view. They're driving around aimlessly and feeling lonely.
The chorus repeats the phrase "yesterday you told me 'bout the blue, blue sky, and all that I can see is just another lemon tree." This suggests that the singer has been promised something good, but all they see is disappointment. The lemon tree becomes a symbol of their disappointment and frustration.
The bridge of the song includes several repetitions of "dah-dah-dah-dah, di-dah-dah." This simple melody adds to the feeling of monotony and boredom that the singer is experiencing. They feel like their life is going nowhere and they're surrounded by nothing but boredom and disappointment.
Overall, "Lemon Tree" is a melancholic and reflective song that captures the feeling of being stuck in a boring and unfulfilling life.
Line by Line Meaning
I'm sittin' here in the boring room
I'm stuck in a dull space with nothing to do
It's just another rainy Sunday afternoon
The weather is gloomy, and it's a typical weekend day
I'm wastin' my time, I got nothin' to do
I am unproductive and not occupied
I'm hangin' around, I'm waitin' for you
I'm not going anywhere until you show up
But nothing ever happens
My life is stagnant and uneventful
I'm drivin' around in my car
I'm aimlessly cruising in my vehicle
I'd like to change my point of view
I desire a new perspective on life
I feel so lonely, I'm waitin' for you
I'm feeling isolated and hoping for your company
But nothing ever happens and I wonder
Life remains uneventful, and I'm left wondering why
I wonder how, I wonder why
I'm curious and questioning
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue, blue sky
You talked about how wonderful things were
And all that I can see is just another lemon tree
But all I see around me is disappointment
I'm turnin' my head up and down
I'm looking around trying to see more
I'm turnin, turnin', turnin', turnin', turnin' around
I'm searching every angle and view
And all that I can see
But still, all I see
Is just another lemon tree
Is disappointment and failure
I'm sittin' here, I missed the power
I'm still stuck, feeling powerless
I'd like to go out, takin' a shower
I want to leave and freshen up
But there's a heavy cloud inside my head
But my mind remains heavy and pessimistic
I feel so tired, put myself into bed
I'm drained and retreating to rest
I wonder how, I wonder why
I'm still curious and unsatisfied
And all that I can see is just another lemon tree
My life remains unfulfilling
And I wonder (wonder, wonder, wonder)
And my mind continues to search for answers

I love how the videoclip describes the quarantine.
@sandys947
this song was, is and probably will a song that hold me;
a light on the middle of a dark stormy night, a expression of what many of us suffer inside but we can’t explain to the people around us.
I simply love this song

einer der wenigen Remixe's die ich super gelungen sind und perfekt in die heutige Zeit passen, wobei auch schon das Original schön ist, wenn es im Radio läuft
