Lilac Wine
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.
