1
Suzanne takes you dow-own
2
To her place by the river
3
You can hear the boats go by
4
You can spend the night forever
5
And you know the girl's half-crazy
6
That's why you want to be there
7
And she feeds you tea and oranges
8
That come all the way from China
9
And just when you want to tell her
10
That you have no love to give her
11
She gets you on her wavelength
12
And lets the river answer
13
That you've always been her lover-er
14
And Jesus was a sailor
15
When he walked upon the water
16
And he spent a long time watchin'
17
From a lonely wooden tower
18
And when he knew for certain
19
Only-why drownin' men could see him
20
He said all men are sailors, then
21
Until the sea shall free them
22
Bu-ut he, himself, was broken
23
Long before the sky would ope-en
24
Forsaken, almost human
25
He sank beneath your wisdom like a sto-o-one
26
And you want to travel with him
27
Ahh you want to travel bli-ind
28
And you-ou think that you might trust him
29
For he's touched your perfect body with his mind
30
Suzanne takes you down
31
To her place by the river
32
And you can hear the boats that go by
33
You can spend the night forever
34
And the sun pours down like honey
35
On Ou-our Lady of the Harbor
36
And she shows you where to look
37
Amid the garbage and the flowers
38
There are heroes in the seaweed
39
There are children in the morni-ing
40
They are leanin' out for love
41
And they will lean that way forever
42
While Suzanne holds her mirror
