Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river |
| [00:16.900] |
You can hear the boats go by |
| [00:20.390] |
You can spend the night beside her |
| [00:23.720] |
And you know that she's half crazy |
| [00:27.520] |
But that's why you want to be there |
| [00:30.770] |
And she feeds you tea and oranges |
| [00:34.570] |
That come all the way from China |
| [00:37.510] |
And just when you mean to tell her |
| [00:41.750] |
That you have no love to give her |
| [00:45.180] |
Then she gets you on her wavelength |
| [00:49.150] |
That you've always been her lover |
| [00:52.590] |
And you want to travel with her |
| [01:02.580] |
And you want to travel blind |
| [01:06.200] |
And you know that she will trust you For you've touched her perfect body with your mind. |
| [01:14.130] |
And Jesus was a sailor |
| [01:22.930] |
When he walked upon the water |
| [01:26.800] |
And he spent a long time watchingFrom his lonely wooden tower |
| [01:33.410] |
And when he knew for certain |
| [01:37.470] |
Only drowning men could see him |
| [01:41.350] |
He said 'All men will be sailors then |
| [01:45.300] |
Until the sea shall free them' |
| [01:48.530] |
But he himself was broken |
| [01:51.400] |
Long before the sky would open |
| [01:55.020] |
Forsaken, almost human .He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone |
| [02:03.600] |
And you want to travel with him |
| [02:12.700] |
And you want to travel blind.And you know |
| [02:16.000] |
that you can trust her.For she's touched your perfect body with his mind. |
| [02:25.310] |
Now Suzanne takes your hand |
| [02:33.720] |
And she leads you to the river |
| [02:38.040] |
She is wearing rags and feathers.From Salvation Army counters |
| [02:45.980] |
And the sun pours down like honey On our lady of the harbour |
| [02:52.220] |
And she shows you where to look |
| [02:56.200] |
Among the garbage and the flowers.There are heroes in the seaweed |
| [03:03.030] |
There are children in the morning |
| [03:06.150] |
They are leaning out for love.And they will lean that way forever |
| [03:12.880] |
While Suzanne holds the mirror |
| [03:17.500] |
And you want to travel with her |
| [03:24.390] |
And you want to travel blind |
| [03:26.860] |
And you know that you can trust her.For she's touched your perfect body with her mind. |
