You float along the air, with teardrops in your hair

Up and out the window before anybody hears

So wear your warmest clothes, because you're so cold

Set fire to yourself and yet still your heart it froze.

(Now) now

(Now) now

(Now) now

Now, now, now!

Suzanne, I want to die holding hands

Running from this world's demands

All those radio bands never made me feel.

Suzanne.

You were the girl that the world swung for

I was just a boy who sung until his lungs were sore

And in your diary you had an entry

Listing all your enemies, what you'd do to them and what you'd do it for.

(Now) now

(Now) now

(Now) now

Now, now, now!

Suzanne, I want to die holding hands

Running from this world's demands

All those radio bands never made me feel

Suzanne, "do you believe in rock n roll?

Can music save your mortal soul?

Can you teach me how to dance real slow?"

And in your hospital room at the midnight hour

You had your boyfriend back just for half an hour

Past the landscaped shrubs and the rusted iron gate.

So let's start a siege, you make a list of demands

Set the hostages free and we'll die holding hands.

Suzanne, I want to die holding hands

Running from this world's demands

All those radio bands never made me feel

Suzanne, "do you believe in rock n roll?

Can music save your mortal soul?

Can you teach me how to dance real slow?"

(Now) now

(Now) now

(Now) now

Now, now, now!
