I lost myself on a cool damp night
I gave myself in that misty light
was hypnotised by a strange delight
under a lilac tree
I made wine from the lilac tree
lost my heart in its recipe
it made me see what I want to see
and be what I want to be
But I think more than I ought to think
I do things I never should do
I drink much more than I ought to drink
because it brings me back you
Lilac wine
is sweet and heady
like my love
Lilac wine
I feel unsteady
like my love
Listen to me
I cannot see clearly
isn’t that he coming to me
nearly here?
Lilac wine
is sweet and heady
where’s my love?
Lilac wine
I feel unsteady
where’s my love?
Listen to me
why is everything so hazy?
isn’t that he
or am I going crazy?
Lilac wine
I feel I’m ready for my love
feel I’m ready for my love
