I lost myself on a cool damp night Gave myself in that misty light Was hypnotized by strange delight Under a lilac tree I made wine from the lilac tree Lost my heart in its recipe Made me see what i want to see Be what i want to be But i think more than i want to think 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, lwhere's my love Listen to me, why is everything so hazy Isn't that he, or am i going crazy, dear Lilac wine I feel i'm ready for my love Feel i'm ready For my love
