Nina Simone - Lilac Wine


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 that 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 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...

Nina Simone - Lilac Wine

Incredibly deep and torn. I so intensely relish in this slice of Nina's soul. Saddened pockets of our past... I lived this song, I breathed it's pain. It will always run deeply within me,...
