pat mcgee band - southern cross lyrics

Loading...

got out of town on a boat for the southern islands
sailing to reach before a following 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 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 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 looking 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 i have left and music is her name

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

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
