Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Jeannine, I dream of lilac time
Your eyes, they beam in the lilac time
Your winning smile
And cheeks blushing like the rose
Yet all the while, you sigh when nobody knows
Jeannine, my queen of lilac times
When I return, I'll make you mine
For you and I, our love dream can never die

Jeannine, I dream of lilac time
Jeannine, when lilacs are in bloom, I long for you

Your eyes, they beam in the lilac time
Your eyes sparkle and shine during the lilac season

Your winning smile
Your charming smile that captures and wins over hearts

And cheeks blushing like the rose
Your rosy, blush cheeks that add to your beauty
