[00:06.280] Suzanne takes you down
[00:11.090] To a place by the river
[00:14.500] You can hear the boats go by
[00:19.160] You can spend the night forever
[00:23.910] And you know that she's half crazy
[00:27.350] And that's why you want to be there
[00:31.870] And she feeds you tea and oranges
[00:35.820] That come all the way from China
[00:40.090] And just when you want to tell her
[00:43.960] That you have no love to give her
[00:48.220] She gets you on her wavelength
[00:56.730] And let's the river answer that you've always been her lover
[01:05.150] And you want to travel with her
[01:08.710] And you want to travel blind
[01:13.420] And you think you'll maybe trust her
[01:20.410] For she's touched your perfect body with her mind
[01:27.560] And Jesus was a sailor
[01:30.550] And Jesus was a sailor
[01:31.660] When He walked upon the water
[01:34.460] When He walked upon the water
[01:39.330] And He spent a long time watching
[01:39.840] From a lonely wooden tower
[01:42.970] From a lonely wooden tower
[01:47.120] And when He knew for certain
[01:47.770] Only drowning men could see Him
[01:50.780] Only drowning men could see Him
[01:55.560] He said, "All men shall be sailors then
[01:59.670] Until the sea shall free them"
[02:05.700] But He himself was broken
[02:07.730] Long before the sky would open
[02:11.070] Forsaken, almost human
[02:18.120] He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
[02:27.980] And you want to travel with Him
[02:32.480] And you want to travel blind
[02:36.500] And you think you'll maybe trust Hm
[02:44.050] For He's touched your perfect body with His mind
[02:52.590] Suzanne takes you down
[02:57.300] To a place by the river
[03:00.950] You can hear the boats go by
[03:05.570] You can spend the night forever
[03:09.270] And the sun pours down like honey
[03:14.100] On our lady of the harbour
[03:17.640] And she shows you where to look
[03:22.100] Amid the garbage and the flowers
[03:25.960] There are heroes in the seaweed
[03:30.320] There are children in the morning
[03:34.380] They are leaning out for love
[03:43.870] And they will lean that way forever while Suzanne holds the mirror
[03:50.570] And you want to travel with her
[03:54.770] And you want to travel blind
[03:59.180] And you think maybe you'll trust her
[04:06.790] For you've touched her perfect body with your mind
