I'm sitting here in a boring room

　　It's just another rainy Sunday afternoon

　　I'm wasting my time, I got nothing to do

　　I'm hanging around, I'm waiting for you

　　But nothing ever happens -- and I wonder

　　I'm driving around in my car

　　I'm driving too fast, I'm driving too far

　　I'd like to change my point of view

　　I feel so lonely, I'm waiting for you

　　But nothing ever happens, and I wonder

　　(Chorus)

　　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 turning my head up and down

　　I'm turning, turning, turning, turning, turning around

　　And all that I can see is just a yellow (another) lemon tree

　　La, la da dee da, etc.

　　I'm sitting here, I miss the power

　　I'd like to go out taking 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 stepping around in a dessert of joy

　　Baby anyhow I'll get another toy

　　And everything will happen -- and you'll wonder

　　Repeat Chorus

　　I wonder how I wonder why

　　Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue, blue sky

　　And all that I can see

　　And all that I can see (dit dit dit)

　　And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree
