It was a good time
Just a bad decision
We were all wrapped up with the best intentions You were out of my league
And I was running out of time
To string together words that were gonna make you mine Ain't it funny how it all works out
Ain't it funny how it all works out
Ain't it funny how every now and then the unfortunate kind, get lucky sometimes Thirty nine years
You've been putting up with me
You're folks said we'd never see our first anniversary Do you remember that first week
When you burnt that pecan pie
And I ate the whole damn thing I couldn't stand to see you cry Ain't it funny how it all works out
Ain't it funny how it all works out
Ain't it funny how every now and then the unfortunate kind, get lucky sometimes Then you got sick
And things just weren't the same
There were days I'd come to visit and you didn't even know my name Then I watched you fade away
While I was holding tight to you
Until the nurses pulled me back and said there's nothing you can do Ain't it funny how it all works out
Ain't it funny how it all works out
Ain't it funny how every now and then the unfortunate kind, get lucky sometimes It's been two years to the day
Since you left me here alone
Most days I sit there in the kitchen waitin for you to come home Yeah I'm still haunted by your ghost
I can't sleep in our old bed
I just lay there on the couch thinking bout the words you said Ain't it funny how it all works out
Ain't it funny how it all works out
Ain't it funny how every now and then the unfortunate kind, get lucky sometimes
