Testo Fruit Tree - Nick Drake
Testo della canzone Fruit Tree (Nick Drake), tratta dall'album Five Leaves Left
Fame is but a fruit tree
So very unsound
It can never flourish
'Til its stalk is in the ground
So men of fame
Can never find a way
'Til time has flown
Far from their dying day
Forgotten while you're here
Remembered for a while
A much updated ruin
From a much updated style
Life is but a memory
Happened long ago
Theatre full of sadness
For a long forgotten show
Seems so easy
Just to let it go on by
'Til you stop and wonder
Why you never wondered why
Safe in a womb of an everlasting night
You find the darkness can give the brightest light
Safe in your place deep in the earth
That's when they'll know what you are really worth
Forgotten while you're here
Remembered for a while
A much updated ruin
From a much updated style
Fame is but a fruit tree
So very unsound
It can never flourish
'Til its stalk is in the ground
So men of fame
Can never find a way
'Til time has flown
Far from their dying day
Fruit tree
Fruit tree
No one knows you but the rain and the air
Don't you worry
They'll stand and stare when you're gone
Fruit tree
Fruit tree
Open your eyes to another year
They will know that you were here
When you are gone
