[Verse 1]
Suzanne takes you down
To a place near the river
You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside her
You know that she's half-crazy
But that's why you wanna 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
That's when she gets you on her wavelength
And she lets the river answer
That you've always been hеr love
[Verse 2]
And Jesus was a sailor
When hе 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 shall be sailors then
Until the sea shall free them"
But then he himself was broken
Long before the sky would open
Forsaken, almost human
Sank beneath your wisdom like he was a stone
[Chorus]
And you want to travel with him
Yeah, you wanna travel blind
You when you answer
For he's touched your perfect body with his mind
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
And 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 harbor
And she shows you where to look
Among the garbage and the flowers
There are heroes in the seaweed
There are children in the morning
They're leaning out for love
And they want
