00:30Shazam takes you down to a place by the river You can hear the boats go by
00:53You can spend the night forever and you know that she's half crazy
01:01And that's why you want to be there
01:06And she feeds you tea and oranges
01:12That come all the way from China
01:17Just when you mean to tell her
01:21That you have no love to give her
01:26She gets you on a wavelength
01:30And she lets the river answer
01:34That you've always been her lover
01:42But you know you want to travel with her
01:46And you know you want to travel blind
01:54You think maybe you can trust her
01:59She's touched your perfect body with her mind
02:15Now Jesus was a sailor when he walked across the water
02:37And he spent a long time watching
02:41From his lonely wooden tower
02:44Only he knew for certain
02:50Only drowning men could see him
02:55He said all men will be sailors then
03:00Until the sea shuts right down
03:05But he himself was broken
03:10Long before the sky would open
03:15For Satan, almost human
03:20He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
03:31But you know you want to travel with him
03:34And you know you want to travel blind
03:43You think maybe you can trust him
03:48He's touched your perfect body with his mind
04:04Now Jesus was a sailor when he walked across the water
04:10And he spent a long time watching
04:14From his lonely wooden tower
04:18Only he knew for certain
04:22Only drowning men could see him
04:26He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
04:30He's touched your perfect body with his mind
04:35Now Jesus was a sailor when he walked across the water
04:40And he spent a long time watching
04:44From his lonely wooden tower
04:48Only he knew for certain
04:52Only drowning men could see him
04:56Now, Suzanne, take your hand
05:02And she'll lead you to the river
05:07This light doesn't come on
05:09She's wearing rags and feathers
05:13From Salvation Army counters
05:16And the sun pours down like honey
05:23On our lady of the harbor
05:28And she shows you where to look
05:32Between the garbage and the flowers
05:36There are heroes in the seaweed
05:42There are children in the morning
05:48And they are leading that flow
05:52And they did it and they will lead that way forever
05:56While Suzanne holds the mirror
05:58While Suzanne holds the mirror
06:03I think maybe you can trust her
06:09She's touched your perfect body
06:13With her mind
06:18With her mind
06:22With her mind
06:26With her mind
06:29With her mind
06:33With her mind
