Got outta town on a boat going to southern islands
A G DSailing a reach before a a following sea
A G DShe was making for the trades on the outside
And the downhill run to Paapete
A G DOff this wind on this heading lie the Marqueses
A G D Bm AWe got eighty feet of the waterline nicely making way
In a noisy bar in Avalon I tried to call you
A G D Bm ABut on a midnight watch I realized why twice you ran away
AThink about
Think about how many times I have fallen
G D G ASpirits are using me larger voices calling
G D G AWhat heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten
I have been around the world
D G ALooking for that woman girl
D G AWho knows love cant ignore
And you know it will
A G DAnd you know it will
A G DWhen you see the Southern Cross for the first time
You understand now why you came this way
A G DCause the truth you might be runnin from is so small
A GBut its as big as the promise
The promise of a coming day
So Im sailing for tommorrow my dreams are a dying
And my love is an anchor tied to you
Tied with a silver chain
I have my ship and all her flags are a flying
She is all that I have left
And music is her name
(Repeat chorus)
So we cheated and we lied and we tested
And we never failed to fail
It was the easiest thing to do
You will suvive being bested
Somebody fine will come along
Make me forget about losing you
In the southern cross............
