Suzanne

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Her 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, my dear, 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 something in thе Looney Tunes, Looney Tunеs 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] As 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 line, but I swear you're the sweetest sight 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've said, I could've, and I guess I'm telling you now [Chorus] 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 [Bridge] 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 [Pre-Chorus] Things I never say, the things I should've said, I could've, and I guess I'm telling you now [Chorus] 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
