Lilac Wine

Lilac Wine - Nina Simone (妮娜·西蒙)

Written by：Joe 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

It 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 I 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

Is'nt that she coming to me nearly here

Lilac wine is sweet and heady wheres my love

Lilac wine I feel unsteady wheres my love

Listen to me why is everything so hazy

Is'nt that she or am I just going crazy dear

Lilac wine I feel unready for my love
