Meteors by Deacon Blue Lyrics

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
