Suzanne - Leonard Cohen
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 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 you've 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 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

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

And 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
From Salvation Army counters
And the sun pours down like honey

On our lady of the harbour

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 leaning out for love

And they will lean that way forever
While Suzanne holds the mirror

And you want to travel with her

And you want to travel blind

And you know that you can trust her

For she's touched your
perfect body with her mind
