Ron Pope - A Wedding In Connecticut Lyrics
There was a pretty girl
From some small suburb of Dallas
And she came up to New York with a dream
In the confusion and the noise
Turned grey like snow beside the city street
She met a boy named Steven
They made love in his apartment
In a second story walk up out in Queens
And the things she hoped to find
Beneath him on that August night
Was the farthest thing from her
As she dressed to leave
So she hides her eyes
Says a slow goodbye
Swears by the morning light, she'll be fine
At a wedding in Connecticut
The mother of the bride
Daydreams about her husband who just passed
As she stands to give her toast
She says "the only thing I know
Is when you find a love that's worth it
Make it last"
So she chokes back the tears
And speaks of all her daughters years
Thirty Christmas' of memories that she keeps
And the speech was sad and sweet
She kisses guests as they all leave
Then heads off to her hotel room to weep
So she bides her time
And says a slow goodbye
Swears by the morning light, she'll be fine
Yeah she hides her eyes
Though it's hard some nights
She'll take her own sweet time, and she'll be fine
A welder who spent twenty years
Working in an auto plant
Gets laid off on a Thursday afternoon
And he grips the fourty-five
That's rests in the glove box when he drives
Then puts the gun away and wonders what to do
So he parks in his driveway
And head against the steering wheel
And tries to think of what to tell his wife
And in the kitchen, he explains
And swears they'll be okay
She says, "you're the only thing I need in this life"
So he bides his time
And says a slow goodbye
Swears by the morning light, he'll be fine
Yes, he hides his eyes
Though it's hard some nights
He'll take his own sweet time, and he'll be fine

The lyrics of this song its beautiful, music,
No, he is THE god
do not talk nonsense, please
some artist you just know you will never stop loving their music. Like Ron Pope, every song has it's own story, and it's own emotion it's passing on to you, it's simply...perfection, to my ears and mind <3
3 love this song. Such a sad, tragic and beautiful song x
-they've kept for so long). And it's coming back from that sadness, recovering, each of these people telling themselves, by the morning light, they'll be fine. They'll be fine. There's hope. It's a beautiful story, a beautiful song...
one of my greatest friends explained it to me like this: It's a sad song but about hope, too... It's about these people, dealing with different forms of sadness - but then they have to cope with it, they tell themselves they'll be fine. And with time, they will be. So I guess - it's about the types of sadness (a young girl, getting her heart broken, her dream lost, in a big city; a mother reminiscing about her daughter and her husband, a man that just died; someone who's lost a job-
Can someone tell me what this song is about? I love the tune, I just can't get the meaning.
Ron pope is a god.
so beautiful yet so tragic omg!
I have absolutely been in love with Ron Pope and his songs since the first time I heard him. This song is not an exception.
I bawled. Help.
I love how he tells stories with his songs.. He really is an exceptional songwriter and singer :)
this is the most beautiful thing ever!
Steven <3
