Текст песни Suzanne (Live FM Broadcast 1988) - 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 she's half crazy
That's why you wanna be there
And she feeds you tea and oranges
That come all the way from China
And just when you mean to tell her
You have no love to give her
She gets you on her wavelength
She lets the river answer
You've always been her lover
And you want to travel with her
You want to travel blind
And then you know she will trust you
For you've touched her perfect body
With your mind
Jesus was a sailor
When he walked upon the water
And he spent a long time watching
From a 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
But now you want to travel with him
You want to travel blind
And you think this time you'll trust him
For he's touched your perfect body
With his mind
Now Suzanne takes your hand
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 flowers
There are heroes in the seaweed
There are children in the morning
They are leaning out for love
They will lean that way forever
While Suzanne holds her mirror
And you want to travel with her
You want to travel blind
You know that she will find you
For she's touched your perfect body
With her mind
