Suzanne

[Verse 1] Who are you when the lights come up? When the music fades and the crowd goes down? Where did you land when the spinning stopped? Are you far away in another town? You were young and the lights were bright You went dancing in to the night You always said it would turn out alright Suzanne, will you tell me if you can? [Chorus 1] Suzanne, is it everything you wanted? Suzanne, Suzanne, is it everything you dreamed it would be? You reached for the stars and you touched the sky You fеll back down and you don't know why But, Suzanne, you still shine bright to me [Verse 2] You arе the first one on and the last one off Who do you see when the mask comes off? With your red wine teeth and your smoker's cough Suzanne, I'm sure you've had enough But you never cared for what I had to say Now you go sleeping all through the day Please don't dream your life away Suzanne, would you help me to understand? [Chorus 2] Suzanne, is it everything you wanted? Suzanne, Suzanne, is it everything you dreamed it would be? For time takes everything she likes And youth will leave like a thief in the night But, Suzanne, you still shine bright to me [Verse 3] Now you're old and the lights are dim The band won't play and the man won't sing All the songs that he sang when you danced with him Suzanne, can I take you by the hand? [Chorus 3] Suzanne, is it everything you wanted? Suzanne, Suzanne, is it everything you dreamed it would be? You never knew the rules to the game Drawn in like a moth to the flame Suzanne, it is a crying shame That they’ll never know your name
