Leaves smell like lemon – what could this tree be?

Our property is famous for unknown trees just springing up from nowhere. I do not like to uproot them and now I have what could be called a garden with systematic wilderness. 

The leaves that you see in the photo belong to one such tree which is slender and tall. The leaves have a refreshing smell of lemons 

I know there are herbs that smell like lemon and are used sometimes to add a lemon flavour to dishes. 

I was wondering if I could use these leaves too but am not sure if they are edible.  Is there an expert here who can guide me?
