to a 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 wanna be there
And she feeds you tea and oranges
That come all the way from
And just when you mean to tell her
That you have no love to give her
Then she gets you on a 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
perfect body with your mind
Jesus was a sailor when he
And he spent a long time watching
And when 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
And you want to travel with him
And you want to travel blind
And you think maybe you'll trust him
Cause he's touched your perfect
Susanne takes your hand and she
And the sun pours down like honey
on the 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
They are leaning out for love
They will lean that way forever
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know you can't trust her
perfect body with her mind
