Lyrics Suzanne

Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river

You can hear the boats go by and you can spend the night beside her

And you know that she's half crazy

But that's why you wanna be there

And she feeds you tea and oranges

That come all the way from China

And just when you mean to tell her

That you have no love to give her

Then she gets you on her wavelength

And she lets the river answer

That you've always been her lover

And you want to travel with her and you want to travel blind

And you know she will trust you

For you've touched her perfect body with your mind

And Jesus was a sailor when he walked upon the water

And he spent a long time watching

From his lonely wooden tower

And when he knew for certain

Only drowning men could see him

He said all men will be sailors then

Until the sea shall free them

But he himself was broken long before the sky would open

Forsaken almost human he sank beneath

Your wisdom like a stone

And you want to travel with him and you want to travel blind

And you think maybe you'll trust him

For he's touched your perfect body with his mind

Now Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river

She is wearing rags and feathers from salvation army counters

And the sun pours down like honey on our lady of the harbor

And she shows you where to look among the garbage and the flowers

There are heroes in the seaweed

There are children in the morning

They are leaning out for love they will lean that way forever

While Suzanne holds the mirror

And you want to travel with her and you want to travel blind

And you know you can trust her

For she's touched your perfect body with her mind
