You Never Can Tell

from Coventry Cathedral - Easter '21 by Rob Halligan

lyrics

She grew up in a God-fearing home
Was pure as the fresh laid snow
Had a laugh that sang like a mountain stream
And her face was sun-kissed gold
Everyone around said she would settle down
With a man who was raised up well
Just goes to show that you never can tell

He grew up in a place by the sea
His life was a storm-tossed wave
Spent his days having fun and his nights on the run
And his love on the broad highway
Everyone around said he was going down
With his life that was raising hell
Just goes to show that you never can tell
You never can tell
O you never can tell
Just goes to show that you never can tell

Call it fate or call it chance
Or call it meant to be
But two lives come from worlds apart
And collide for all to see
And they all said that they’d crash down
And they all thought they’d fail
Just goes to show that you never can tell

It was never gonna be an easy road
But then again it never is
But when you’ve got a love that’s closer than a glove
And sweeter than an angel's kiss
You don’t give a thought to what should or shouldn’t aught
Work out in this funny old world
Just goes to show that you never can tell
