Canals of Suzhou Lyrics & Tabs by The Ruffled Feathers
Canals of Suzhou
guitar chords lyrics
Have you heard the song
As gondoliers float on
Through waterways and ‘neaths made of stone
Row to the rhythms of the dawn
I sailed down canals of Suzhou
(Ooh oh) Where lovers roam
My song is spreading, and the swallows are building their homes,
On the mountains where the mulberries grow
The mysteries of my mind
Come back to me
The pieces uncombined
Come back to me
Our summer stars aligned
Come back to me
My lovers lost in time
Our summer stars aligned
Come back to me
My lovers lost in time
Come back to me
Summer time
Where have you gone?
The invisible cities of my mind are crumbling,
And falling into the sea
My dreams will
Travel on the breeze
Searching for the ancient days of youth
The places where memories take root
I sail down canals of Suzhou
(Ooh oh) Where the mangroves grow
But the sun is setting, and the ocean’s calling me home
It’s stamped on the marrow of my bones
The mysteries of my mind
Come back to me
The pieces uncombined
Come back to me
Our summer stars aligned
Come back to me
My lovers lost in time
Come back to me
