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 made me see what I want to see
And be what I want to be

'Cause I think more than I want 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
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...
