[00:13.85]Suzanne takes you down
[00:16.54]To her place near the river
[00:20.11]You can see the boats go by
[00:23.06]And you can spend the night forever
[00:27.29]And you know that she's half crazy
[00:30.36]And that's why you want to be there
[00:34.20]And she feeds you tea and oranges
[00:36.98]That come all the way from China
[00:41.25]And just when you mean to tell her
[00:44.88]That you have no love to give her
[00:48.15]She gets you on her wavelength
[00:50.73]And she lets the river answer
[00:54.43]That you've always been her lover

[01:01.99]And Jesus was a sailor
[01:05.07]When He walked upon the water
[01:07.65]And He spent a long time watching
[01:11.17]From a lonely wooden tower
[01:15.45]Yes and when He knew for certain
[01:18.25]Only drowning men could see Him
[01:21.50]He said, "All men will be sailors then
[01:25.36]Until the sea... free them"
[01:28.91]But He Himself was broken
[01:31.97]Long before the sky would open
[01:35.93]Forsaken, almost human
[01:39.38]He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
[01:49.31]And you want to travel with Him
[01:52.45]And you want to travel blind
[01:55.63]And you think maybe you'll trust Him
[01:59.81]'Cause He's touched your perfect body with his mind
[02:10.27]Suzanne takes your hand
[02:12.76]And she leads you beside the water
[02:16.55]She is wearing rags and feathers
[02:20.01]From the Salvation Army counters
[02:23.07]And the sun pours down like honey
[02:27.02]On our lady of the harbor
[02:30.59]She shows you where to look
[02:33.13]Between the garbage and the flowers
[02:37.12]There are heroes in the seaweed
[02:41.28]There are children in the morning
[02:43.90]They are leaning out for love
[02:47.00]And they will lean that way forever
[02:50.51]While Suzanne holds the mirror
[02:58.12]You want to travel with her
[03:01.22]And you want to travel blind
[03:04.11]And you think maybe you can trust her
[03:08.30]'Cause she's touched your perfect body with her mind
