Meteors - Deacon Blue

Had a friend in Fowlis

We’d stay up all night and talk it out

We’d never worry about things

We shouldn’t worry about

Like the cold dark river

Currents running so deep you can’t see

How far down we’d be

Before they pulled us out

Oh, the toughest test

Is not the way we came into the world

Or the way it ends

Yes, our toughest test

Is what lies between and what we do

With the time we get

This world is beautiful

It’s full of beautiful things

Tall trees and meadows and birds that sing

Oh, the toughest test

Is not the way we came into the world

Or the way it ends

Yes, our toughest test

Is what lies between and what we do

With the time we get

There’s a hole in the middle

We’ve gotta work out how we’re gonna fill it in

Oh, the toughest test

Is not the way we came into the world

Or the way it ends

Yes, our toughest test

Is what lies between and what we do

With the time we get
