Walkman: Lilac Wine

[Jogintas Visockas]

خيلي‌ها اين آهنگ را خوانده‌اند و من نشنيده‌ام. جف باكلي هم فقط نسخه‌اي كه نينا سيمون خوانده بود را شنيده و دوستش داشت. و من اجراي نينا سيمون را هم نشنيده‌ام. اما اجراي خود باكلي را بارها شنيده‌ام. دوستش دارم.

Jeff Buckley: 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
When I think more than I want 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 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,
feel unready for my love.
