I lost myself on a cool damp night
Gave myself in that misty light
Was hypnotized by strange delight
Under a lilac tree
I made wine from the lilac tree
Lost my heart in its recipe
Made me see what i want to see
Be what i want to be
But i think more than i want to think
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, lwhere's my love
Listen to me, why is everything so hazy
Isn't that he, or am i going crazy, dear
Lilac wine
I feel i'm ready for my love
Feel i'm ready
For my love
