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 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 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 Around the world (I have been around the world) Lookin' (lookin' for that woman girl) Who knows she knows (who knows love can endure) 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 comin' 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 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 (I have been around the world) 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 lied and we tested And we never failed to fail it was the easiest thing to do You will survive being bested Somebody fine will come along make me forget about loving you And the southern cross
