Lilac Wine - Jeff Buckley

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 than I ought to drink Because It brings me back to 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 I'm steady, where's my love? Listen to me, why is everything so hazy? Isn't that he, or am I just going crazy, dear? Lilac Wine, I feel I'm ready for my love Feel I'm ready for my love

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 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 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 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 just going crazy? Lilac Wine, I feel unready for my love Feel unready for my love

Winchester It's where I fell in love 'til I hit the ground too hard But stood up strong Friends of friends Made fun of me 'til my knees went weak and I cried But I survived I hope it gets better up in Winchester, babe I know you don't like small town living, babe It's always hard to leave When your friends all got a leash And you'll find it's hard to stay When your smart friends move away Me and myself, we'll do this together And get out of Winchester Mother's drunk It's just my luck, she couldn't give a fuck if she tried And boy I cried I drove all night In a stranger's car with a couple tattoos on my arm She was alarmed I hope it gets better up in Winchester, babe I know you don't like small town living, babe It's always hard to leave When your friends all got a leash And you'll find it's hard to stay When your smart friends move away Me and myself, we'll do this together And get out of Winchester I hope it gets better up in Winchester, babe I know you don't like small town living, babe It's always hard to leave When your friends all got a leash And you'll find it's hard to stay When your smart friends move away Me and myself, we'll do this together And get out of Winchester We'll do this together And get out of Winchester We'll do this together And get out of Winchester

Back to a time where our feet ran like the talk does today Get back to a time where eyes were wide for all that was praised Bent and frayed from older days But here today because fo those ways When you stare at the sun and pick those daisies as you run Took the time to tell stories of the creatures yet to come And our cups overflowed in that home grown July Hearts full, brought tears to my eyes Breaking boundaries that should never have been Trying to write when you have never stood up to see what's within, see time brings clarity Whats beyond the composed? Transparent causality of childhood as we grow When you stare at the sun and pick those daisies as you run Took the time to tell stories of the creatures yet to come And our cups overflowed in that home grown July Hearts full, brought tears to my eyes To friends that are family and family that are friends, may your night turn into morning and the barefoot never end Cause tomorrow won't fit yesterdays shoes, so we'll choose to win or loose When you stare at the sun and pick those daisies as you run Took the time to tell stories of the creatures yet to come And our cups overflowed in that home grown July Hearts were full, and that brought tears to my eyes

If you dance, I'll dance And if you don't, I'll dance anyway Give peace a chance Let the fear you have fall away (I've got my eyes on you) I've got my eyes on you Say yes to heaven Say yes to me Say yes to heaven Say yes to me If you go, I'll stay (I'll stay) When you come back, I'll be right here Like a barge at sea In the storm, I just stay clear (I've got my mind on you) I've got my mind on you Say yes to heaven Say yes to me Say yes to heaven Say yes to me If you dance, I'll dance I'll put my black dress on again If you fight, I'll fight It doesn't matter, now it's all gone (And I've got my mind on you) And I've got my mind on you Say yes to heaven Say yes to me Say yes to heaven Say yes to me (I've got my eyes on you) I've got my eyes on you (I've got my eyes on you) (I've got my mind on you) (I've got my mind on you) (I've got my mind) I've got my eyes on you

In the town where I was born Right across from that old church Used to keep my eye on Mary While she'd shine behind the birds Now the moon is in that window And the glow has hit you right Like a cigarette crushed in my pocket Waiting for a chance to light 'Cause when the lights come on And the sun goes down I'm gonna lay you down In the backseat of whatever I'm driving Driving around Up ahead is the old skate park Where I used to run around Couldn't ride for shit to save my life I'd pretend if you were around But now the dogs are getting called to And the kids are running up the drive Honey, we got nowhere we need to be At least not for tonight 'Cause when the lights come on And the sun goes down I'm gonna lay you down In the backseat of whatever I'm driving Driving around And you can call me old-fashioned But how did I never think of this until now? This house is all we've seen for days and days Why don't we go and drive around? 'Cause when the lights come on And the sun goes down I'm gonna lay you down In the backseat of whatever I'm driving Driving around
