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 it's recipe It makes me see what I want to see And be who I want to be When I think more than I ought to think And 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 can not see clearly Isn't that she Coming near here Lilac wine is sweet and heady,Where's my love. Lilac wine, I feel unready. 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 is sweet and heady, Where's my love I, I feel unready for my love
