Lilacs and champagne
A sweet and bubbly trip
The widow lost her grip
And Peter’s gonna slip

Lilacs and champagne
Keep running through my head
Be quiet someone said
The baby may be dead

Why did you cry
When the summer said goodbye
Don’t you know there must be fall and winter too?
All Hallow’ s Day
When your mother came to stay
I could see our summer love was through

Lilacs and champagne
Keep messing up my mind
Please don’t be unkind
If I leave our past behind
Just say I’m blind
If I leave our past behind
Just say I’m blind
If I leave our past behind
Just say I’m blind
If I leave our past behind
