Katie Melua

Lilac wine

I lost myself on a cool damp night
I gave myself in that misty light
Was hypnotised by a strande delight
Under a lilac tree
I made wine from the lilac tree
Lost my heart in its recipe
It made me see what I want to see
And be what I want to be

But I think more than I ought to think
I 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
Where's my love?
Listen to me...
Why is everything so hazy?
Isn't that he, or am I going crazy?

Lilac wine, I feel I'm ready
for my love...
Feel I'm ready for my love
