Jeff Buckley (The Naive Beauty)

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..

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
