Text: Jeff Beck. Emotion & Commotion. Lilac Wine.
I lost myself on a cool damp night
Gave myself in that misty light
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
Be what I want to be
When I think more than I wanna think
Do things I never should do
I drink much more than I ought to drink
Because it brings me back you
Listen to me, why is everything so hazy?
Isn't that he coming to me?
Or am I just going crazy, dear?
