Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Her eyes are like the ocean
Her nails are painted green
A cigarette in her mouth as she mouths, "Hey, dear, how you been?" (How you been?)
[Verse 2]
Grey skies out the window
But she's a summer breeze
Come and set the tone now, dear, come sit down next to me
[Verse 3]
Suzanne
Her hair hangs like curtains
Her smile is warm like June (Warm like June)
She blinks in slow motion
Just like something in the Looney Tunes, Looney Tunes
[Verse 4]
You can't tell 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
Oh, Suzanne, I need you
Ooh, you look so good tonight
[Verse 5]
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)
[Verse 6]
I whisper to the waiter
"A glass of something strong"
Since I'm about to finally tell you how I've been feeling all along
[PreChorus]
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've ever seen, yeah (Ever seen)
So I can't tell if you're into me (Into me)
So I'ma say it out loud (I'ma say it out loud)
[PreChorus]
Things I never said, the things I should have said
I coulda, then I guess I'm tellin' 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
Oh, Suzanne, I need you
Ooh, you look so good tonight
[Bridge]
And I want, and I want, and I want ya
You look so good tonight
And I need-a, and I need-a, and I need-a your love
Suzanne, you look so good tonight
And I wanna, and I need-a, oh-oh
So, so good, oh, oh-oh
[PreChorus]
Things I never said, the things I should have said
I coulda, then I guess I'm tellin' 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
Oh, Suzanne, I need you
I would love to hold you if I can
Ooh, you look so good tonight
