Sylvie Vartan
Suzanne

(Leonard Cohen)

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.


Mirror lyrics:

For she's touched your perfect body with her mind.
And you know that you can trust her
And you want to travel blind
And you want to travel with her
While Suzanne holds the mirror
And they will lean that way forever
They are leaning out for love
There are children in the morning
There are heroes in the seaweed
Among the garbage and the flowers
And she shows you where to look
On our lady of the harbour
And the sun pours down like honey
From Salvation Army counters
She is wearing rags and feathers
And she leads you to the river
Now Suzanne takes your hand

For he's touched your perfect body with his mind.
And you think maybe you'll trust him
And you want to travel blind
And you want to travel with him
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
Forsaken, almost human
Long before the sky would open
But he himself was broken
Until the sea shall free them"
He said "All men will be sailors then
Only drowning men could see him
And when he knew for certain
From his lonely wooden tower
And he spent a long time watching
When he walked upon the water
And Jesus was a sailor
For you've touched her perfect body with your mind.
And you know that she will trust you
And you want to travel blind
And you want to travel with her
That you've always been her lover
And she lets the river answer
Then she gets you on her wavelength
That you have no love to give her
And just when you mean to tell her
That come all the way from China
And she feeds you tea and oranges
But that's why you want to be there
And you know that she's half crazy
You can spend the night beside her
You can hear the boats go by

(Leonard Cohen)
