she lets the river answer that you’ve always been

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 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. 
Just when you mean to tell her 
that you have no gifts to give her, 
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, 
    you want to travel blind 
    and you know that she can trust you 
    because you’ve touched her perfect body 
    with your mind.
