Version 2 of the lyrics

  Got out of town on a boat for the southern islands  Got out of town on a boat for the southern islands
  Sailing a reach before a following sea  Sailing a reach before a following sea
  She was makin' for the trades on the outside  She was makin' for the trades on the outside
  and the downhill run to Papeete  and the downhill run to Papeete
  Off the wind on this heading lie the Marquesas  Off the wind on this heading lie the Marquesas
  We got eighty feet of waterline  We got eighty feet of waterline
  Nicely making way  Nicely making way
  In a noisy bar in Avalon I tried to call you  In a noisy bar in Avalon I tried to call you
  But on a midnight watch I realized why twice you ran away  But on a midnight watch I realized why twice you ran away
      
  Think about how many times I have fallen  Think about how many times I have fallen
  Spirits are using me, larger voices callin'  Spirits are using me, larger voices callin'
  What heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten  What heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten
  I have been around the world  I have been around the world
  Looking for that woman girl  Looking for that woman girl
1  Who knows love can endure.   No        love can endure. 1
2  And you know it will.   When you know it will. 2
      
  When you see the Southern Cross for the first time  When you see the Southern Cross for the first time
  You understand now why you came this way  You understand now why you came this way
  'Cause the truth you might be runnin' from is so small  '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  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'  So I'm sailing for tomorrow, my dreams are a dyin'
  And my love is an anchor tied to you,  And my love is an anchor tied to you,
  tied with a silver chain  tied with a silver chain
  I have my ship and all her flags are a flyin'  I have my ship and all her flags are a flyin'
  She is all I have left and music is her name  She is all I have left and music is her name
1   1
  Think about how many times I have fallen  Think about how many times I have fallen
  Spirits are using me, larger voices callin'  Spirits are using me, larger voices callin'
  What heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten  What heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten
  I have been around the world  I have been around the world
  Lookin' for that woman girl  Lookin' for that woman girl
3  Who knows love can endure   No        love can endure 3
4  And you know it will. And you know it will.   When you know it will. When you know it will. 4
      
  So we cheated and we lied and we tested  So we cheated and we lied and we tested
  And we never failed to fail, it was the easiest thing to do  And we never failed to fail, it was the easiest thing to do
  You will survive being bested  You will survive being bested
  Somebody fine will come along make me forget about loving you  Somebody fine will come along make me forget about loving you
5  In the Southern Cross.   And the Southern Cross. 5
