My lilac girl, oh      Only you can turn my eloquence to banality   Only you can make importancies into trivialities   Only you can cure dismality   Only you can make me swoon      My lilac girl, oh   La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la lilac girl oh ooh oh   La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la lilac girl      She brushes her hair   She climbs down the stairs   Suddenly she's aware that she's beautiful   She looks so delicious   As she's washing the dishes   Suddenly she wishes just like all the fishes in the sea   That she was with me   She was with me, oh ooh oh      La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la lilac girl oh ooh oh   La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la   Well I may lie like a rug   But I mean when I say that I wanna lie down next to you   I may lie like a rug   But I mean when I say it's a lilac girl      Only you can turn my eloquence to banality   Only you can make importancies into trivialities   Only you can cure dismality   Only you can make me swoon      My lilac girl, oh ooh oh   La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la lilac girl oh ooh oh   (only you can make me swoon)   La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la lilac girl oh ooh oh
