Lyrics
"Ain't it Funny"
Ain't it funny..that I never thought you'd really leave this time
And I'm amused..just how easily that love can make one blind
What a joke..to think you would forgive me anyhow
Yeah it's funny..how I just don't see the humor in it now
It's absurd to still pretend that everything's alright
To hide my tears..tell a story to my friends and keep things light
Even smile..as much as the regretting will allow
Yeah it's funny..how I just don't see the humor in it now
Witty conversation..served me in the
past
Now it seems there are no clever lines
Just a hollow laugh
What a fool.. to lose you to the silly games I play
I never heard all the most important things you tried to say
Take a look..at how this jester dropped your heart then took a bow
Ain't it funny..how I just don't see the humor in it now
