(Reprise d′une chanson de Leonard Cohen)

Suzanne takes you down to her place near the riverYou 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

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 she will trust you

For you've touched her perfect body with your mind

Now Jesus was a sailor as he walked upon the water

And he spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower

Until he knew for certain only drowning men could see him

He said all men shall 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 this mind

Now Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river

She's wearing rags and feathers from Salvation Army counters

And the sun pours down like honey on our lady of the harbor

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

And they′re 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 will trust her

For she's touched your perfect body with her mind
