Lilac Wine

[Verse 1]

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

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

[Chorus 1]

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?

[Chorus 2]

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, dear?

[Outro]

Lilac Wine, I feel I'm ready for my love

Feel I'm ready for my love
