Suzanne

Eyes are like the ocean
Her nails are painted green
A cigarette in her mouth and she mouths
Hey, dear, how you been (How you been)
Grey skies out the window
But she's a summer breeze
Come and set the tone, I dare
Come sit down next to me, Suzanne

Her hair hangs like curtains
Her smile is warm like June (Warm like June)
She blinks in slow motion
Just like someone in the Looney Tunes, Looney Tunes
You can't tell if she's into you
She's a winding road (Winding road)
That I've been running on down
Since I was seven years old

Suzanne
I would love to hold you if I can
Suzanne, Suzanne
If you'd allow my left arm and my right arm
To collide inside the small of your back
Just like that (I do)
I need you, Suzanne (Suzanne)
Oh, Suzanne, how I need you
Ooh, you look so good tonight

So time gives way to the magic hour
Sunset at the bar
You rest your left ear on my shoulder
And I wonder if that's just how you are (How you are)
I whisper to the waiter
A glass of something strong
Suz, I'm about to finally tell you
How I've been feeling all along
I said: Suzanne

Eyes are like the ocean (Ocean)
Nails are painted green (Painted green)
And I know this sounds like a lie
But I swear you're the prettiest I ever seen (Ever seen)
Now I can't tell if you're into me (Into me)
So I'ma say it out loud (I'ma say it out loud)
Things I never say, the things I should have said, I couldn't
And I guess I'm telling you now

Suzanne
I would love to hold you if I can
Suzanne, Suzanne
If you'd allow my left arm and my right arm
To collide inside the small of your back
Just like that (I do)
I need you, Suzanne (Suzanne)
Oh, Suzanne, how I need you
Ooh, you look so good tonight

And I want, and I want
And I want her (You look so good tonight)
And I need her, and I need her
And I need her (Sue, yeah, you look so good tonight)
And I want her, and I need her, oh
So, so good, girl, oh

Things I never say, the things I should have said, I couldn't
And I guess I'm telling you now

Suzanne
I would love to hold you if I can (Ooh)
Suzanne, Suzanne
If you'd allow my left arm and my right arm
To collide inside the small of your back
Just like that (I do)
I need you, Suzanne (Suzanne)
Oh, Suzanne, how I need you (I wanna hold you if I can)
Ooh, you look so good tonight
