Got out of town on a boat to the southern islands
On a reach before a followin' sea
We were makin' for the trades on the outside
And the downhill run to Papeete
On this heading off the wind lie the Marquesas
We got eighty feet of waterline
Nicely making way
In a noisy bar in Avalon I tried to call you
But on a midnight watch I realized why twice you ran away
Think about, think about how many times I have fallen
Spirits are using me, larger voices callin'
What heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten
I have been around the world
Lookin' for that woman, girl
Who knows love can endure
And you know it will
And you know it will
When you see the Southern Cross for the first time
You understand that's why you came this way
'Cause the truth you been runnin' from is so small
But it's as big as the promise, the promise of a coming day
And I'm heading all the way, my dreams are a-dyin'
And my love is an anchor tied to you, tied with a silver chain
I have my ship and all her flags are a-flyin'
She is all that I have left and music is her name
Think about, think about how many times I have fallen
Spirits are using me, larger voices callin'
What heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten
I have been around
I have been around the world
Lookin', lookin'
Lookin' for that woman, girl
Who knows love can endure
And you know it will
And you know it will
So we cheated and we tried and we tested
And we never failed to fail, it was the easiest thing to do
You will survive being bested
Somebody strong comes along, makes me forget, forget about loving you
At the Southern Cross |
