i lost myself on a cool damp night
gave myself in that misty light
was hypnotized by a strange delight
under a lilac tree
i made wine from the lilac tree
put my heart in its recipe
it makes me see what i want to see
and be what i want to be
when i think more than i want to think
do things i never should do
i drink much more than i ought to drink
because i 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 just going crazy, dear?
lilac wine, i feel unready
for my love... |
