That when it came to romancing

But then she met I best friend  
And knocked him right off his pins  
But still I wasn't worried  
Cause the best man always wins  
The way it all turned out  
There was no doubt  
That I was best man in the end  
Yes  
I was the best man  
When she married my best friend
