1 SUZANNE (FT. KEVIN JOHANSEN)
Suzanne takes you down
To her place near the river
You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside her
And you know that she’s half-crazy
But that’s why you wanna be there
And she feeds you tea and oranges
That comes all the way from China
And just when you mean to tell her
That you have not love to give her
Then she gets you on her wave length
And she lets the river answer
That you’ve always been her lover
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And then you know she will trust you
For you’ve touched her perfect body with your mind
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
Ultil 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
And then you think maybe you’ll trust him
For he’s 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
For 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 are learning out for love
And they lean that way forever
While Suzanne holds the mirror
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And then you know she will trust you
For you’ve touched her perfect body with her mind
