Lemon Tree But there's a heavy cloud inside my head

I'm .................. here in the boring room I feel so tired
It's just another rainy Sunday afternoon Put myself into bed
I'm ................... my time Well, nothing ever happens and I wonder
I got nothing to do
I'm ................... around Isolation is not good for me
I'm ....................... for you Isolation I don't want to sit on the lemon-tree
But nothing ever happens and I wonder
I'm .............. around in the desert of joy
I'm ................. around in my car Baby anyho w I'll get another toy
I'm driving too fast And everything will happen and you wonder
I'm driving too far
I'd like to change my point of view I wonder how
I feel so lonely I wonder why
I'm waiting for you Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
But nothing ever happens and I wonder And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree
I wonder how I'm turning my head up and down
I wonder why I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree And I wonder, wonder
I'm .................. my head up and down I wonder how
I'm turning turning turning turning turning around I wonder why
And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see, and all that I can see, and
I'm sitting here all that I can see
I miss the power Is just a yellow lemon-tree
I'd like to go out .................... a shower
