[00:11.79]suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
[00:18.91]you can hear the boats go by
[00:22.12]you can spend the night beside her
[00:25.99]and you know that she's half crazy
[00:29.47]but that's why you want to be there
[00:32.99]and she feeds you tea and oranges
[00:36.38]that come all the way from china
[00:39.71]and just when you mean to tell her
[00:43.84]that you have no love to give her
[00:47.27]then she gets you on her wavelength
[00:50.86]and she lets the river answer
[00:54.20]that you've always been her lover
[00:57.72]
[01:00.53]and you want to travel with her
[01:04.31]and you want to travel blind
[01:07.64]and you know that she will trust you
[01:11.29]for you've touched her perfect body with your mind
[01:16.58]
[01:22.29]and jesus was a sailor
[01:25.78]when he walked upon the water
[01:29.31]and he spent a long time watching
[01:32.49]from his lonely wooden tower
[01:36.26]and when he knew for certain
[01:39.73]only drowning men could see him
[01:43.19]he said all men will be sailors then
[01:47.02]until the sea shall free them
[01:50.43]but he himself was broken
[01:53.83]long before the sky would open
[01:57.11]forsaken almost human
[02:00.79]he sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
[02:05.62]
[02:11.10]and you want to travel with him
[02:14.92]and you want to travel blind
[02:17.93]and you think maybe you'll trust him
[02:21.93]for he's touched your perfect body with his mind
[02:26.99]
[02:32.69]now suzanne takes your hand
[02:36.38]and she leads you to the river
[02:40.24]she is wearing rags and feathers
[02:43.55]from salvation army counters
[02:47.39]and the sun pours down like honey
[02:50.85]on our lady of the harbour
[02:54.73]and she shows you where to look
[02:57.63]among the garbage and the flowers
[03:01.30]there are heroes in the seaweed
[03:05.43]there are children in the morning
[03:08.57]they are leaning out for love
[03:12.43]and they will lean that way forever
[03:15.42]while suzanne holds the mirror
[03:18.98]
[03:22.10]and you want to travel with her
[03:25.87]and you want to travel blind
[03:29.09]and you know that you can trust her
[03:33.08]for she's touched your perfect body with her mind
