[00:10.57] |
Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river |
[00:17.68] |
You can hear the boats go by |
[00:20.84] |
You can spend the night beside her |
[00:24.64] |
And you know that she's half crazy |
[00:28.34] |
But that's why you want to be there |
[00:31.84] |
And she feeds you tea and oranges |
[00:34.89] |
That come all the way from China |
[00:38.65] |
And just when you mean to tell her |
[00:42.55] |
That you have no love to give her |
[00:45.90] |
Then she gets you on her wavelength |
[00:49.66] |
And she lets the river answer |
[00:52.91] |
That you've always been her lover |
[00:59.38] |
And you want to travel with her |
[01:02.98] |
And you want to travel blind |
[01:06.08] |
And you know that she will trust you |
[01:09.99] |
For you've touched her perfect body with your mind |
[01:20.96] |
|
[01:20.98] |
And Jesus was a sailor |
[01:24.28] |
When he walked upon the water |
[01:27.98] |
And he spent a long time watching |
[01:31.19] |
From his lonely wooden tower |
[01:35.17] |
And when he knew for certain |
[01:38.42] |
Only drowning men could see him |
[01:41.89] |
He said "All men will be sailors then |
[01:45.69] |
Until the sea shall free them" |
[01:49.05] |
But he himself was broken |
[01:52.40] |
Long before the sky would open |
[01:55.90] |
For saken almost human |
[01:59.66] |
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone |
[02:10.01] |
And you want to travel with him |
[02:13.51] |
And you want to travel blind |
[02:16.62] |
And you think maybe you'll trust him |
[02:20.62] |
For he's touched your perfect body with his mind |
[02:31.40] |
|
[02:31.41] |
Now Suzanne takes your hand |
[02:34.91] |
And she leads you to the river |
[02:39.20] |
She is wearing rags and feathers |
[02:42.11] |
From Salvation Army counters |
[02:46.11] |
And the sun pours down like honey |
[02:49.36] |
On our lady of the harbour |
[02:53.01] |
And she shows you where to look |
[02:56.36] |
Among the garbage and the flowers |
[02:59.93] |
There are heroes in the seaweed |
[03:04.08] |
There are children in the morning |
[03:07.39] |
They are leaning out for love |
[03:10.85] |
And they will lean that way forever |
[03:14.31] |
While Suzanne holds the mirror |
[03:20.87] |
And you want to travel with her |
[03:24.53] |
And you want to travel |
[03:27.73] |
And you know that you can trust her |
[03:31.84] |
For she's touched your perfect body with her mind |
[03:38.00] |
