Ain't It Funny Lyrics

Estoy loca
Enamorada, de ti

It seemed to be like the perfect thing for you and me
It's so ironic you're what I had pictured you to be
But there are facts in our lives
We can never change
Just tell me that you understand and feel the same
This perfect romance that I've created in my mind
I'd live a thousand lives
Each one with you right by my side
But yet we find ourselves in a less than perfect circumstance
And so it seems like we'll never have the chance

Ain't It Funny how some feelings you just can't deny (Oh)
And you can't move on even though you try (Oh)
Ain't it strange when you're feeling things you shouldn't feel
Oh, I wish this could be real
Ain't it funny how a moment could just change your life (Oh)
And you don't want to face what's wrong or right (No)
Ain't it strange how fate can play a part
In the story of your heart

Sometimes I think that a true love can never be
I just believe that somehow it wasn't meant for me
Life can be cruel in a way that I can't explain
And I don't think that I could face it all again
I barely know you but somehow I know what you're about
A deeper love I've found in you
And I no longer doubt
You've touched my heart and it altered every plan I've made
And now I feel that I don't have to be afraid

Ain't it funny how some feelings you just can't deny (Oh)
And you can't move on even though you try (Oh)
Ain't it strange when you're feeling things you shouldn't feel
Oh, I wish this could be real
Ain't it funny how a moment could just change your life (Oh)
And you don't want to face what's wrong or right (No)
Ain't it strange how fate can play a part
In the story of your heart

I locked away my heart
But you just set it free
Emotions I felt
Held me back from what my life should be
I pushed you far away
And yet you stayed with me
I guess this means
That you and me were meant to be

Oh

Ain't it funny how some feelings you just can't deny
And you can't move on even though you try
Ain't it strange when you're feeling things you shouldn't feel
Oh, I wish this could be real, oh yeah, oh yeah
Ain't it funny how a moment could just change your life
And you don't want to face what's wrong or right, no no
Ain't it strange how fate can play a part
In the story of your heart, oh yeah

Ain't it funny how some feelings you just can't deny (Funny)
And you can't move on even though you try (Even if you try)
Ain't it strange when you're feeling things you shouldn't feel
Baby, ain't it funny how
Ain't it funny how a moment could just change your life (Change your life)
And you don't want to face what's wrong or right (Wrong or right)
Ain't it strange how fate can play a part
Baby, ain't it funny how

Ain't it funny how some feelings you just can't deny (Can't deny)
And you can't move on even though you try (though you try)
Ain't it strange when you're feeling things you shouldn't feel (baby)
Ain't it funny how a moment could just change your life
And you don't want to face what's wrong or right
Ain't it's strange how fate can play a part

Ain't it funny how some feelings you just can't deny
And you can't move on even though you try
Ain't it strange when you're feeling things you shouldn't feel
Ain't it funny how a moment could just change your life
And you don't want to face what's wrong or right
Ain't it strange how fate can play a part

Ain't It Funny

This was co-written by Jennifer Lopez and Cory Rooney for the 2001 Adam Shankman-directed romantic comedy The Wedding Planner. Cory Rooney recalled to Songwriter Universe : "Jennifer and I were in Canada, and we wanted to write a song [which was originally intended] for her movie, The Wedding Planner. The music popped in my head, and I went home and worked on the track. Then I sat with Jennifer and we banged out the song."

"Tommy (Mottola) was even involved with writing the song," Rooney added. "He was so enthusiastic about the track, that he contributed melody ideas to the song."

Adam Shankman felt that the song had too much of a Latin influence to be featured in The Wedding Singer. However, the song was included on Lopez's second studio album J.Lo. Released as its third single on June 20, 2001, it was a commercial success, peaking within the top ten in multiple countries, though it didn't originally chart on the Hot 100.

Sales of the song were boosted by a remix by Irv Gotti and 7 with additional vocals from Ja Rule and Caddillac Tah. The remix peaked at #1 on the Hot 100 and Airplay for the week ending March 9, 2002 giving Lopez her third chart-topper following "If You Had My Love" and "I'm Real."

R&B singer-songwriter Ashanti Douglas wrote several verses for the remix and also supplied background vocals. During April 2002, Ashanti had a hand in the top three singles in the United States. This song, "What's Luv?" by Fat Joe featuring Ashanti, and her own solo hit "Foolish."
