Fruit tree Lyrics
Artist(Band):Nick Drake
Review The Song (2)Print the Lyrics
Fame is but a fruit tree
So very unsound.
It can never flourish
Till its stalk is in the ground.
So men of fame
Can never find a way
Till time has flown
Far from their dying day.
Forgotten while you're here
Remembered for a while
A much updated ruin
From a much outdated style.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
Till you stop and wonder
Why you never wondered why.

Safe in the 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 were really worth.
Forgotten while you're here
Remembered for a while
A much updated ruin
From a much outdated style.

Fame is but a fruit tree
So very unsound.
It can never flourish
Till its stock is in the ground.
So men of fame
Can never find a way
Till 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'll all know
That you were here when you're gone.

Review about Fruit tree

Drake's music | Reviewer: Denis Mugerin | 7/24/2008

If you want to listen some of Nick Drake's songs and albums, go to Deezer.com. I love Fruit Tree, one of my favorite song ever. I also like Vetiver, Neil Young, Elliott Smith, Swell, Grandaddy, The Auteurs, The Sleepy Jackson, Tim Buckley and the likes.



Fruit Tree / Nick Drake | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/28/2007

This has to be one of the most beautiful songs ever written. The melody and lyrics coming together to create a melencholy and reflective piece of work that moves me to tears. Anyone not familiar with Nick Drakes work is missing out. A must.
