Suzanne
Suzanne ti accompagna al suo posto presso il fiume dove senti passare le barche e puoi stare con lei la notte lo sai che è mezza matta ma è per questo che sei lì lei ti offre tè all’arancia arrivato dalla Cina e non appena stai per dirle che non hai amore da offrirle lei ti porta in sintonia e lascia il fiume a rivelarti che tu la hai sempre amata Tu vorresti andare via con lei e seguirla ad occhi chiusi sai che lei di te si fiderà perché il tuo pensiero ha toccato il suo corpo perfetto. Gesù era un marinaio e camminava sull’acqua stette a lungo ad osservare solo nella sua torre di legno e quando ebbe la certezza che solo i reietti lo avrebbero visto disse agli uomini: – Siate marinai fino a che il mare vi farà liberi - ma egli stesso fu stroncato ancor prima che il cielo si aprisse abbandonato, nella sua natura umana affondò come un sasso nella vostra saggezza Tu vorresti andare via con lui e seguirlo ad occhi chiusi pensi che forse gli crederai poiché il suo pensiero ha toccato il tuo corpo perfetto. Ora Suzanne ti prende la mano ti conduce presso il fiume addosso ha stracci e piume dalle casse dell’Esercito della Salvezza il sole si riversa come miele su nostra signora del porto * lei ti dice di guardare tra la spazzatura e i fiori tra le alghe vedrai eroi e bambini nel mattino che si affacciano all’amore e per sempre lo faranno mentre Suzanne regge lo specchio Tu vorresti andare via con lei e seguirla ad occhi chiusi sai che di lei ti puoi fidare perché il suo pensiero ha toccato il tuo corpo perfetto
Suzanne 1
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.
