[00:11.93]Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
[00:18.30]You can hear the boats go by
[00:21.56]You can spend the night beside her
[00:25.79]And you know, she’s half crazy
[00:29.17]It’s why you want to be there
[00:32.59]She feeds you tea and oranges
[00:36.04]That come all the way from China
[00:39.20]And just when you mean to tell her
[00:42.71]You have no love to give her
[00:45.69]She gets you on her wavelength
[00:49.81]And she lets the river answer
[00:53.22]You’ve always been her lover
[00:56.90]And you want to travel with her
[01:02.53]And you want to travel blind
[01:05.75]And know she will trust you
[01:10.30]For you’ve touched her perfect body with your mind
[01:18.12]Jesus was a sailor
[01:24.02]When He walked upon the water
[01:26.95]And He spent a long time watching
[01:30.22]From His lonely wooden tower
[01:34.06]And when He knew for certain
[01:37.00]Only drowning men could see Him
[01:40.59]He said,”All men will be sailors then
[01:44.35]Until the sea shall free them”
[01:47.58]But He, Himself was broken
[01:50.59]Long before the sky would open
[01:54.55]Forsaken, almost human
[01:57.94]He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
[02:08.64]And you want to travel with him
[02:11.64]You want to travel blind
[02:15.34]And you know he will find you
[02:18.78]For he’s touched your perfect body with his mind
[02:25.84]Suzanne takes your hand now
[02:31.71]And she leads you to the river
[02:34.07]She is wearing rags and feathers
[02:38.02]From Salvation Army counters
[02:42.82]And the sun pours down like honey
[02:46.04]On our, our lady of the harbor
[02:48.36]She shows you where to look
[02:52.27]Among the garbage and the flowers
[02:55.69]There are heroes in the seaweed
[02:59.18]There are children in the morning
[03:02.32]They are leaning out for love
[03:05.72]And they will lean that way forever
[03:09.08]While Suzanne holds the mirror
[03:12.38]And you want to travel with her
[03:18.10]You want to travel blind
[03:21.70]And you know she’ll find you
[03:24.86]For she’s touched your perfect body with her mind
