Best Mistake I Ever Made - Kevin Fowler

I was young and single

Glad that i was free

Had my whole life ahead

There was nothing stoppin me

Headed out to Vegas, me and all my friends

Just a bunch of clowns runnin round in a town of sin

Ten shots later and one double dare

Met a girl said I do in some chapel out there

That was the best mistake I ever made

The Lord works in mysterious ways

Chose a wrong path all my life

But for once I did something right

And just one look in her and I see

Someone smiling down on me

And I’m not too proud to say

That was the best mistake I ever made

Trying to start a family was the last thing we had planned

Till I came home from work

She had her head in her hands

I could see the worry

Through the teardrops in her eyes

She said, «How we gonna do this when we’re barely gettin by?»

We wern’t prepared for all those changes in our world

That all changed when the doctor said it’s a girl

That was the best mistake I ever made

The Lord works in mysterious ways

Chose a wrong path all my life

But for once I did something right

And just one look in her and I see

Someone smiling down on me

And I’m not too proud to say

That was the best mistake I ever made

There’s consequences to the decisions in our lives

Just cause we didn’t mean to do it that don’t mean that it ain’t right

That was the best mistake I ever made

The Lord works in mysterious ways

Chose a wrong path all my life

But for once I did something right

And just one look in her and I see

Someone smiling down on me

And I’m not too proud to say
