[00:10.01] Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
[00:18.25] You can hear the boats go by
[00:22.12] You can spend the night beside her
[00:26.12] And you know that shes half crazy
[00:29.81] But thats why you want to be there
[00:32.99] And she feeds you tea and oranges
[00:38.12] That come all the way from china
[00:42.00]
[00:42.69] And just when you mean to tell her
[00:46.62] That you have no love to give her
[00:50.49] Then she gets you on her wavelength
[00:52.81] And she lets the river answer
[00:56.93] That youve always been her lover
[01:02.99]
[01:05.75] And you want to travel with her
[01:10.12] And you want to travel blind
[01:15.31] And you know that she will trust you
[01:18.87] For youve touched her perfect body with mind.your
[01:28.07]
[01:32.38] And jesus was a sailor
[01:34.44] When he walked upon the water
[01:38.81] And he spent a long time watching
[01:43.31] From his lonely wooden tower
[01:47.00] And when he knew for certain
[01:52.18] Only drowning men could see him
[01:55.63] He said all men will be sailors then
[02:00.18] Until the sea shall free them
[02:03.62]
[02:04.87] But he himself was broken
[02:08.13] Long before the sky would open
[02:12.25] Forsaken, almost human
[02:16.39] He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
[02:21.65]
[02:27.39] And you want to travel with him
[02:31.27] And you want to travel blind
[02:36.46] And you think maybe youll trust him
[02:39.65] hes For touched your perfect body with his mind.
[02:47.70]
[02:51.76] Now suzanne takes your hand
[02:55.76] And she leads you to the river
[02:59.82] She is wearing rags and feathers
[03:04.13] From salvation army counters
[03:08.01] And the sun pours down like honey
[03:11.63] On our lady of the harbour
[03:15.07] And she shows you where to look
[03:19.51] Among the garbage and the flowers
[03:24.01] There are heroes in the seaweed
[03:28.07] There are children in the morning
[03:31.45] They are leaning out for love
[03:35.63] And they will lean that way forever
[03:40.07] While suzanne holds the mirror
[03:44.82]
[03:48.32] And you want to travel with her
[03:52.26] And you want to travel blind
[03:56.45] And you know that you can trust her
[04:00.51] For shes touched your perfect body with her mind.
