Suzanne Video (MV)

Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river

You can hear the boats go by you can stay the night beside her

And you know 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

Just when you mean to tell her that you have no 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 you know she will trust you

Cause 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 searching from his lonely wooden tower

And just 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 may be you'll trust him

For he's touched your perfect body with his mind



Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river

She's weaving 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 heros in the seaweed there are children in the morning

They are leaning out for love 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
