Suzanne - alternate version

[00:18.26] Suzanne takes you down
[00:22.90] To her place by the river
[00:27.39] You can hear the boats go by
[00:32.46] You can spend the night forever
[00:36.98] And you know that she's half crazy
[00:41.49] And that's why you want to be there
[00:46.06] And she feeds you tea and oranges
[00:50.64] That come all the way from China
[00:56.54] Just when you mean to tell her
[01:01.25] That you have no love to give her
[01:06.25] She gets you on her wavelength
[01:10.28] And she lets the river answer
[01:13.14] That you've always been her lover
[01:19.43]
[01:22.11] And you want to travel with her
[01:27.37] You want to travel blind
[01:31.02] 'Cause you think maybe you can trust her
[01:38.42] She's touched your perfect body with her mind
[01:45.83]
[01:50.45] Jesus was a sailor
[01:54.87] When he walked across the water
[01:59.28] And he spent a long time watching
[02:04.99] From his lonely wooden tower
[02:10.09] And when he knew for certain that
[02:13.32] Only drowning men could see him
[02:17.42] He said, "All men will be sailors then
[02:22.68] Until the sea shall free them"
[02:28.39] But he himself was broken
[02:32.80] Long before the sky would open
[02:38.01] Forsaken, almost human
[02:42.06] He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
[02:49.49]
[02:53.83] And you want to travel with him
[02:58.56] And you want to travel blind
[03:02.93] 'Cause you think maybe you can trust him
[03:09.75] He's touched your perfect body with his mind
[03:16.88]
[03:20.95] Now Suzanne takes your hand
[03:25.38] And she leads you to the river
[03:30.27] She's wearing rags and feathers
[03:35.26] From Salvation Army counters
[03:38.97] And the sun pours down like honey
[03:44.06] On our lady of the harbour
[03:47.33] And she shows you where to look
[03:51.71] Beneath the flowers
[03:55.15] Beneath the flowers and the garbage
[03:58.45] The heroes in the seaweed
[04:02.09] There are children in the morning
[04:05.45] They are leaning out for love
[04:10.09] They will lean that way forever
[04:14.32] Now Suzanne holds a mirror
[04:20.39]
[04:23.19] And you want to travel with her
[04:28.14] And you want to travel blind
[04:32.69] 'Cause you think maybe you can trust her
[04:38.46] She's touched your perfect body with her mind
[04:42.77]
