I'm sitting here in a boring ,
it's just another rainy Sunday .
I'm wasting my time, I got nothing to do.
I'm hanging around, I'm for you,
nothing ever happens - and I wonder.

I'm driving around in my ,
I'm driving too fast, I'm driving too far.
I'd like to change my of view.
I feel so , I'm waiting for you,
But nothing ever happens - and I wonder.

I wonder how, I wonder why

I'm turning my up and down
I'm turning, turning, turning, turning, turning around.
And all that I can see
is just lemon tree.

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