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
