Suzanne

Suzanne takes you to listen to the siren song
She takes you by the hand
To spend an endless night
You know she's half-crazy
That's why you want to stay
On a silver platter
She serves you jasmine tea
And when you want to tell her
You have no love for her
She calls you in her waves
And lets the sea answer
That you've always loved her
 
You want to stay by their side
Now you're not afraid
To travel with your eyes closed
A fire burns in your heart
 
He was a fisherman come to earth
Who watched over the world
From the top of a lonely tower
When he realized that only
Lost men could see him
He said we'd sail
Till the waves set us free
But he himself was broken
Long before the sky opened
Abandoned and almost a man
He sank beneath your wisdom
Like a stone
 
You want to stay by their side
Now you're not afraid
To travel with your eyes closed
A fire burns in your heart
 
Suzanne takes you to listen to the siren song
She takes you by the hand
To spend an endless night
Like honey, the sun flows
On Notre Dame des Pleurs
She shows you where to look
Among the garbage and the flowers
In the seaweed, there are dreams
Children in the early morning
Leaning towards love
They always bend that way
And Suzanne holds the mirror
 
You want to stay by their side
Now you're not afraid
To travel with closed eyes
A strange wound in your heart

In regards of ''On Notre Dame des Pleurs'' -

Marceline Desbordes-Valmore died in Paris on July 23, 1859, in her final resting place at 59, rue de Rivoli, having survived the deaths of almost all her children, her brother and many friends. She was nicknamed "Notre-Dame-des-Pleurs" in reference to the many tragedies that marked her life.
