A man handed me a smile and a bulletin

Held my dress, sliding into that old oak pew

Said, "Excuse me there, Mrs. Sullivan

Is that seat already taken next to you?"

I look back as that back door closed

Y'all walked in and sat right there in front of me

Holding hands and singing along to "It Is Well with My Soul"

Trying like hell to hide my anxiety

'Cause for the roof that you are under, y'all are a little too close

How she got him, God only knows

I always thought it was the good Lord's plan

You and me would be more than just friends

I know your heart like the back of both my trembling hands

Her and me got this same red carpet 'neath our feet

But she must have been praying a little bit harder than me

Preacher man prayed his final prayer

You and her slipped out down that mile-long aisle

I watched through the stained glass by the stairs

As you helped her up in that truck that I've been in a million times

He's in love, I'm in denial

I always thought it was the good Lord's plan

You and me would be more than just friends

I know your heart like the back of both my trembling hands

Her and me got this same red carpet 'neath our feet

But she must have been praying a little bit harder than me

How tight did she fold her hands?

How long did she bow her head?

It'll take that times ten

To get on over him

I always thought it was the good Lord's plan

You and me would be more than just friends

I know your heart like the back of both my trembling hands

Her and me got this same red carpet 'neath our feet

But she must have been praying a little bit harder than me
