Suzanne Lyrics - Singles - Hope Sandoval

Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river 

You can hear the boats go by you can stay the night beside her 

And you know 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 

Just when you mean to tell her that you have no love to give her 

Then she gets you on her wave length 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 

Cause 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 searching from his lonely wooden tower 

And just 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 may be you'll trust him 

For he's touched your perfect body with his mind

Ariana Grande Adds Her Own Verse To "Last Christmas" 

Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river 

She's weaving 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 heros in the seaweed there are children in the morning 

They are leaning out for love 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
