Southern Cross

Over my life the Southern Cross I notice it more when it's not there Over my life I've never lost The (feeling) that guided me on my way Mother City, I came around In the Mother City with the sound Of the doves that call from Cape to Cairo Oh Mama I lay me down In my dreams I see the ocean Smiling when the day is blue How much of your salt is mothers' tears? Oh how many died to sail to you? Mother City, I came around In the Mother City with the sound Of the doves that call from Cape to Cairo Oh Mama I lay me down And all good things the southeast brings And all good things the southeast brings Over my life the Southern Cross I notice it more when it's not there Over my life I've never lost The (feeling) that guided me on my way Mother City, I came around In the Mother City with the sound Of the doves that call from Cape to Cairo Oh Mama I lay me down In the Mother City I came around In the Mother City with the sound Of the doves that call from Cape to Cairo Oh Mama I lay me down Over my life the Southern Cross ooh Over my life the Southern Cross Oh Mama I lay me down Oh Mama I lay me down Oh Mama I lay me down Oh Mama I lay me down
