Been long time since the snow man came around
I don't see him running his deals around town
I planted a lemon seed
Back there in nineteen ninety three
Now it's a whole lot bigger than little ol' me
I'm sure he found some other fool to hook
That low down poser friend he's got his black book
My lemon tree looks well
It's got the loveliest smell
It's one thing that the snow man will never see
That lemon tree has sharp prickers on it so
Be careful do not to touch it don't cha know
And I don't touch the snow
Was hard to let it go
Unchained now I am happilly being free
never did enjoy building snowmen, never liked the cold
so now I am far away where I am protected by wet lands and palm trees
hammocks and tropical drinks, " don't forget to shovel the Driveway"!!!!

While Jerry probably let “the cat out of the bag,” I came up with a different conclusion from my reading.
The lemon tree would symbolize a bitter taste in your mouth from a bitter experience that has now grown into a sweet memory. The snowman would be some sociopath who preys on the innocent and unwary and “snows” them with his manipulation. You left his bullshit behind.
I certainly hope that I am closer than Jerry, but then, he is much more experienced in these things than I.
If not for Jerry's comment, I would not have understood this. Now that I do, I love the way worded it. Guess I've never understood why the "snowmen" are able to continue plying their trade for so long. They are, in my opinion, killers of families, lives, health, with very few survivors like yourself.
