Jeff Buckley - Lilac Wine Lyrics

Artist: Jeff Buckley

Album: Miscellaneous

  • Songwriters: James H. Shelton

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
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 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
