Suzanne takes you down to her place BY (near) the river You can hear the boats go by You can spend the night FOREVER (beside her) And you know that shes half crazy AND (But) thats why you want to be there And she feeds you tea and oranges That come all the way from China And just when you mean to tell her That you have no love to give her (then) She gets you on her wavelength And she lets the river answer That youve always been her lover And you want to travel with her And you want to travel blind And you know that she will trust you For youve touched her perfect body with your mind. NOW (And) Jesus was a sailor When he walked upon the water And he spent a long time watching From his lonely wooden tower And when he knew for certain Only drowning men could see him He said All men will be sailors then Until the sea shall free them But he himself was broken Long before the sky would open Forsaken, almost human He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone And you want to travel with him And you want to travel blind CAUSE (And) you think maybe you(ll) CAN trust him CAUSE (For) hes touched your perfect body with his mind. Now Suzanne takes your hand And she leads you to the river She is wearing rags and feathers From Salvation Army counters And the sun pours down like honey On our lady of the harbour And she shows you where to look BETWEEN (Among) the garbage and the flowers There are heroes in the seaweed There are children in the morning They are leaning, LEANING out for love And they will lean that way forever >Love this song with my Whole Heart!<
