Lemon Trees

If I was richer than I am right now, I'd buy a thing or two
For a castle with a view, oh what I would do
Hanging a picture worth a million pounds over the east-wing loo
In a castle that I drew in a dream with you

When I close my eyes I see the lemon trees
Swaying in our garden's gentle summer breeze
There's a river flowing in the wind
That your dogs are running in
We've still got knees and all our hair
Breathing fortune's peaceful air
And lemon trees are everywhere
And you and me are sitting there

Lying together on the emerald grass and wiping off the dew
When the castle that we drew is a distant view
Walking for hours to our flat we'll pass the rich man's avenue
But as long as I'm with you, I'll feel wealthy too

I'll look into your eyes and see our lemon trees
Swaying in our garden's dreamy summer breeze
There's a river flowing and it's blue
There's a person waving and it's you
La la la la la la

When I close my eyes I see the lemon trees
Swaying in our garden's gentle summer breeze
There's a river flowing in the wind
That your dogs are running in
We'll sail the seas, solemly swear
To love and cherish and to care
And lemon trees, oh they're everywhere
And you and me will get us there
