Lilac Wine

I lost myself on a cool damp night
I 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
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 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,
feel unready for my love.
