[00:00.00][Verse 1: Donnie Munro]
[00:25.65]She was the fairest
[00:28.56]And her eyes shone of blue
[00:32.94]I first fell in the autumn term
[00:35.94]There was nothing I could do
[00:40.35]School lovers swarmed
[00:43.68]Around the courtyard wall
[00:47.22]Then walked on up
[00:49.11]The rapture road aglow
[00:52.80][Verse 2: Donnie Munro]
[00:54.51]She kept me warm that winter
[00:58.32]And winter turned to spring
[01:01.98]We never looked 'round corners
[01:05.43]To the changes they could bring
[01:09.12]Her love was a dart
[01:12.66]And I swore she broke my heart
[01:16.80]The world would never turn
[01:19.56]The same again
[01:21.99][Chorus: Donnie Munro]
[01:23.34]The things that are
[01:24.21]And things that never can be
[01:26.46]Are things that we must bear
[01:35.07]To share our destiny
[01:37.20][Verse 3: Donnie Munro ]
[01:46.29]I saw her again last summer
[01:49.56]Where the hard rains fall
[01:53.70]The grass grew long around her feet
[01:57.18]Where the years took their toll
[02:00.54]She once meant the world to me
[02:04.32]But we bypassed destiny
[02:08.04]On the road not taken
[02:11.22]The road unknown
[02:14.67][Chorus]
[02:15.87]The things that are
[02:18.57]And things that never can be
[02:22.80]Are things that we must bear
[02:26.73]To share our destiny
[02:30.18]Oh, the things that are
[02:33.30]And things that never can be
[02:37.59]Are things that we must bear
[02:41.49]To share our destiny
[02:43.80][Bridge: Rory Macdonald]
[02:46.35]She was the only one
[02:49.95]Eternity blindness could see
[02:53.64]Our moments are rushing and gone
[02:56.31]All our pictures incomplete
[03:00.21][Chorus ]
[03:18.96]The things that are and things that never can be
[03:20.40]Are things that we must bear to share our destiny
[03:22.35]Oh, the things that are and things that never can be
[03:29.25]Are things that we must bear to share our destiny
[03:37.14]The things that are
[03:38.43]Things that are and things that never can be
[03:44.04]Are things that we must bear to share our destiny

She was the fairest
And her eyes shone of blue
I first fell in the autumn term
There was nothing I could do
School lovers swarmed
Around the courtyard wall
Then walked on up
The rapture road aglow
She kept me warm that winter
And winter turned to spring
We never looked 'round corners
To the changes they could bring
Her love was a dart
And I swore she broke my heart
The world would never turn
The same again
The things that are
And things that never can be
Are things that we must bear
To share our destiny
I saw her again last summer
Where the hard rains fall
The grass grew long around her feet
Where the years took their toll
She once meant the world to me
But we bypassed destiny
On the road not taken
The road unknown
The things that are
And things that never can be
Are things that we must bear
To share our destiny
Oh, the things that are
And things that never can be
Are things that we must bear
To share our destiny
She was the only one
Eternity blindness could see
Our moments are rushing and gone
All our pictures incomplete
The things that are and things that never can be
Are things that we must bear to share our destiny
Oh, the things that are and things that never can be
Are things that we must bear to share our destiny
The things that are
Things that are and things that never can be
Are things that we must bear to share our destiny
