Suzanne

You've always been her lover

That come all the way from China
Suzanne takes your hand

When He walked upon the water
And she lets the river answer
Until the sea shall free them"
That's why you want to be there
And you know she's half crazy
Only drowning men could see Him

And she leads you to the river
Long before the sky would open
He said, "All men will be sailors then
And the sun pours down like honey
And He spent a long time watching
And they will lean that way forever

But He, Himself was broken
From His lonely wooden tower
There are children in the morning
And Jesus was a sailor
And you want to travel with him

And you know him, he will find you

You want to travel blind
For you've touched her perfect body with your mind
Near the garbage and the flowers
She gets you on her wavelength

And when He knew for certain
There are heroes in the seaweed
From Salvation Army counters
On our, our lady of the harbor
And you know she will find you
You know she will trust you
You want to travel blind
And you want to travel with her
That you have no love to give her
You can spend the night beside her

And just when you mean to tell her
They are leaning out for love
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
You want to travel blind

And you want to travel with her
And she shows you where to look
Forsaken, almost human
While Suzanne holds the mirror
She is wearing rags, feathers
She feeds you tea and oranges
For he's touched your perfect body with his mind
