I lost myself on a cool, damp night.
I gave myself in the 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 that 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.
Oh 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. |
