Nick DrakeFruit Tree

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From a much outdated style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From a much outdated style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 stalk 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
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From a much outdated style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From a much outdated style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 stalk 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
