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 (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 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
