Suzanne takes you dow-own  To her place by the river You can hear the boats go by You can spend the night forever And you know the girl's half-crazy That's why you want to be there And she feeds you tea and oranges  That come all the way from China And just when you want to tell her  That you have no love to give her She gets you on her wavelength  And lets the river answer  That you've always been her lover-er  And Jesus was a sailor  When he walked upon the water And he spent a long time watchin'  From a lonely wooden tower And when he knew for certain  Only-why drownin' men could see him He said all men are sailors, then Until the sea shall free them Bu-ut he, himself, was broken Long before the sky would ope-en Forsaken, almost human He sank beneath your wisdom like a sto-o-one  And you want to travel with him Ahh you want to travel bli-ind And you-ou think that you might trust him  For he's touched your perfect body with his mind  Suzanne takes you down  To her place by the river And you can hear the boats that go by You can spend the night forever And the sun pours down like honey  On Ou-our Lady of the Harbor And she shows you where to look  Amid the garbage and the flowers There are heroes in the seaweed There are children in the morni-ing They are leanin' out for love And they will lean that way forever While Suzanne holds her mirror
