Susanna Lyrics - Nahko

I left my home for the open road 

Bid farewell to a beautiful girl 

She was out to push and prod my bravery 

I was out to conquer the world 

Well, I was circlin' the globe 

She'd spend hers pulling somewhere and then 

She said "I fell in love with the drifter's son 

And now he's gone again" 

Held my adventures up like trophies 

High over my head 

Susanna, she's a patient woman 

She brings my happiness

I'd sing, "O, Susanna 

Don't you cry for me 

I'm headed for those coastal waters 

An ocean floor to see" 

(An ocean floor to see) 

(An ocean floor to see) 

(An ocean floor to see) 

(An ocean floor to see) 

Saw your face carved in the caves 

In the totem-[?] fields 

I wore my stubbornness like armor 

A reliable shield 

Oh, how could I have been so thoughtless 

And careless with my love? 

When I met you, you were driftin' too 

Just like the driftwood does

She'd been knee-deep in the waters 

Whisperin' to the sea 

Susanna, she's a graceful woman 

Her words have convinced to me 

I'd sing, "O, Susanna 

Why don't you come down here with me? 

We'll play in the oldest parts of the jungle 

And climb a banyan tree" 

(We'll climb a banyan tree, we'll climb a banyan tree) 

(We'll climb a banyan tree, we'll climb a banyan tree) 

(We'll climb a banyan tree, we'll climb a banyan tree) 

(We'll climb a banyan tree, we'll climb a banyan tree) 

Explore from shore to shore 

There's always one more mountain to see 

Susanna came to me in a dream 

And on the summit, the said to me 

She said "I am freedom, I'm all that you seek 

But you can't have this if you want all that, 

And you certainly can't have me!" 

(You can't have me, you can't have me) 

(You can't have me, you can't have me) 

(You can't have me, you can't have me) 

(You can't have me, you can't have me) 

(You can't have me, you can't have me) 

O, Susanna, I don't cry for you 

You're the best adventure I've had yet 

But I'm only passing through 

(I'm only passin' through) 

(I'm only passin' through) 

(I'm only passin' through) 

(I'm only passin' through)
