Best of Luck, But I Wish It Was Me

I’ve been told all the best ones
will, for always, be taken
by a much better someone
and I’m always forsaken
and that I should pack it in
no matter how long that it’s been
I may be a future wedding guest
who’ll wish you all the best,

I wish you the best of luck,
but, I wish it was me
who was engaged to you
heading for eternity
promising all my days to you
down on one knee
Oh, wouldn’t you know
that it was just my luck
that someone beat me
to give you that ring
swearing to be to you
yours in so many ways
while I wish you the best of luck
but, I wish it was me

I can’t be the only one,
but I may be mistaken
and one day I’ll awaken
and accept you’ve been taken
And maybe my timing’s not right
and maybe I lack the foresight
and all that’s left to do I guess
is wish you all the best

All this passion that’s gone to waste
and all I’m left with is distaste
on ever getting sweet on you
from here comes the bride in my head
to down the aisle, give you away

Hey, yeah

Your diamond sparkles in my eyes
the way that I thought you and I
would radiate in formal dress
while everyone wishes us all the best

I wish you the best of luck,
but I wish it was me
who was engaged to you
heading for eternity
promising all my days to you
down on one knee
Oh, wouldn’t you know
that it was just my luck,
that someone beat me
to give you that ring
swearing to be to you
yours in so many ways
while I wish you the best of luck
but, I wish you the best of luck,
but I wish it was me
who was engaged to you
heading for eternity
promising all my days to you
down on one knee
Oh, wouldn’t you know
that it was just my luck,
that someone beat me
to give you that ring
swearing to be to you
yours in so many ways
while I wish you the best of luck
but, I wish it was me
