Southern Cross
( Stills/Curtis/Curtis)
Got out of town on a boat goin' to southern islands Sailing a
reach before a followin' sea She was makin' for the trades on the outside, And the downhill run to Papeete Bay
Off the wind on this heading lie the Marquesas We got eighty feet
of the 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
CHORUS: 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
now why you came this way 'Cause the truth you might be runnin' from is so small But it's as big as the promise, the
promise of a coming day
So I'm sailing for tomorrow, 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
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 survive being bested But somebody fine will come along make me forget
about loving you In the Southern Cross
