Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river |
| [00:12.420] |
You can hear the boats go by |
| [00:14.950] |
You can spend the night beside her |
| [00:17.070] |
And you know that she's half crazy |
| [00:20.460] |
But that's why you want to be there |
| [00:24.010] |
And she feeds you tea and oranges |
| [00:27.200] |
That come all the way from China |
| [00:30.210] |
And just when you mean to tell her |
| [00:32.830] |
That you have no love to give her |
| [00:34.900] |
Then she gets you on her wavelength |
| [00:39.010] |
And she lets the river answer |
| [00:42.030] |
That you've always been her lover |
| [00:48.520] |
And you want to travel with her |
| [00:52.080] |
And you want to travel blind |
| [00:54.440] |
And you know that she will trust you |
| [00:55.580] |
For you've touched her perfect body with your mind. |
| [01:06.570] |
And Jesus was a sailor |
| [01:10.070] |
When he walked upon the water |
| [01:13.400] |
And he spent a long time watching |
| [01:16.460] |
From his lonely wooden tower |
| [01:19.420] |
And when he knew for certain |
| [01:22.460] |
Only drowning men could see him |
| [01:25.900] |
He said "All men will be sailors then |
| [01:29.630] |
Until the sea shall free them" |
| [01:33.520] |
But he himself was broken |
| [01:35.480] |
Long before the sky would open |
| [01:38.600] |
Forsaken, almost human |
| [01:39.250] |
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone |
| [01:49.620] |
And you want to travel with him |
| [01:53.410] |
And you want to travel blind |
| [01:56.300] |
And you think maybe you'll trust him |
| [01:58.620] |
For he's touched your perfect body with his mind. |
| [02:08.720] |
Suzanne takes your hand |
| [02:12.590] |
And she leads you to the river |
| [02:16.530] |
She is wearing rags and feathers |
| [02:20.510] |
From Salvation Army counters |
| [02:24.350] |
And the sun pours down like honey |
| [02:26.790] |
On our lady of the harbour |
| [02:28.910] |
And she shows you where to look |
| [02:31.880] |
Among the garbage and the flowers |
| [02:34.790] |
There are heroes in the seaweed |
| [02:37.840] |
There are children in the morning |
| [02:40.330] |
They are leaning out for love |
| [02:44.820] |
And they will lean that way forever |
| [02:46.170] |
While Suzanne holds the mirror |
| [02:53.480] |
And you want to travel with her |
| [02:56.440] |
And you want to travel blind |
| [02:58.760] |
And you know that you can trust her |
| [03:02.590] |
For she's touched your perfect body with her mind. |
