I lost myself on a cool damp night
I 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 it's 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 that 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 she 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 she
or am I just going crazy dear
Lilac wine
I feel unready for my love
Feel unready for my love
I lost myself on a cool damp night
I 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 it's 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 that 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 she 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 she
or am I just going crazy dear
Lilac wine
I feel unready for my love
Feel unready for my love
