Lyric On Susan s Floor

Like crippled ships that made it
Through a storm and finally reached a quiet shore
The homeless found a home on Susan s floor

Didn t feel so cold and tired
Stretched out before her fire
Rollin smokes and drinkin up her wine
And I remember candlelight
And singing til we could not sing no more
Then fallin warm asleep on Susan s floor

Well now that my song is sweeeter
I think I d like to greet her
And thank her for the favors that she gave
A stranger I came
My head bowed in the rain to her door
I sat and sang my songs on Susan s floor

In the mornin I d go on
Buyin kingdoms with my songs
Knowin I d be back in just a while
Warm in the sunlight of her smile

Well lots of time and songs have passed
I catch myself just looking back
Reliving all the wonder of those nights
That s where I d be today
If I had only stayed one night more
And sang another song on Susan s floor

Like crippled ships that made it
Through a storm and finally reached a quiet shore
The homeless found a home on Susan s floor
