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
