Ain't That Just Wonderful

[Chorus | easy island groove, warm harmonies]
And ain’t that just wonderful,
Where a little love can lead?
We came here for a wedding,
Found a place where we could breathe.
When the world gets too demanding,
We know just what to do—
Come back, let our shoulders drop,
Find a wave, enjoy the view.
Ain’t that just wonderful?

[Verse 2 | relaxed, affectionate]
Through the years we’ve kept returning,
Dropping bags beside the door.
You can hear it in our voices—
We’re not rushing anymore.
Some days we’re out there chasing waves,
Some we barely leave our chairs.
Let the afternoon go missing;
We’ve got plenty more to spare.

[Verse 3 | growing warmth, harmonies enter]
Now we’re here for another wedding,
Watching two hearts take that leap.
Making promises like we did,
With a lifetime theirs to keep.
They’ll find their own adventures,
They’ve got their own dreams to pursue.
May the mana of these islands
Give them strength to see them through.

[Bridge | stripped back, a blessing]
May they laugh until they’re helpless,
Give each other room to grow.
Keep a hand across the table
When the words are coming slow.
Build a life with room for playing,
Find their waves and ride them through.
Leave some afternoons wide open,
With nothing much to do.

[Final Chorus | joyful, full harmonies]
And ain’t that just wonderful,
How love brings us back around?
We once stood here making promises,
Now we hear that same sweet sound.
Another couple, new beginnings,
In a place we’ve loved for years.
Let’s raise a glass to all that’s coming,
With the ones we hold most dear.
Ain’t that just wonderful?

[Outro | intimate vocal, gentle steel guitar]
Watching them exchange their vows,
I catch your eye and smile.
I’d take your hand all over again—
Let’s stay a little while.

[Soft harmonies]
Ain’t that just wonderful?

[Verse 1 | warm, storytelling vocal] We married on a clifftop As the sun slipped toward the sea. The ocean crashed beneath our feet, Your hand held tight to me. A voice called to the corners four For a blessing on our start. We left that evening married, With these islands in our hearts.
