Famous but a fruit tree
So very unsung
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 we're young
Remembered for a while
A much updated rim
From a much outdated style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 eye
That's when you know
You were really wild
Forgotten while we're young
Remembered for a while
A much updated rim
From a much outdated style

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 domain

Fruit tree, fruit tree
No one knows you
But the rain in 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
