A note from Wesley on the video:
“Cleopatra made me cry in the studio and I had to stop the take. It’s inspired by a true story about a female taxi driver who, when she was younger, was proposed to. But her father had just passed away, so she didn’t give her boyfriend an answer. So he left the village broken-hearted and rejected and never returned again. He was her great love and she wouldn’t wash the footprints off the floor after he had left.
I knew immediately that I wanted to write a song about the story because it was so haunting and poetic. And I got to meet the lady herself eventually and she was very honest and humble. She really affected me because of the sadness in her story. In today’s world, we are just inundated with images of grandness and how great everyone’s life is. And it’s not true. In fact, it’s depressing. This was a real and honest story.”
-Wesley Schultz
“I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life. But when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I’ll be on time.” This crushed me.
I am so grateful that I found this song. It describes my life story so painfully accurately... I'm sobbing in the bathtub at 2 AM now, listening to it. Always late, especially late for the love of my life... Life hurts so much. The line 'I'll be your mistress, just to have you around' describes the desperate ache of knowing you're too late so accurately. But this is my script; I'll play my part.
Lucky lady, at least she has the traffic to distract her - it's more than I can say.
She is the most beautiful woman in the world. Seriously. No actress can be that beautiful at her age. And her acting make her look even more beautiful. 100x better than the actresses.
I finally understood the ending... The ghost is her in another time line if her choices were different. And it made me cry, because I just had that stand in the driveway moment myself about a week ago...
this song played in the car 3 years ago as I was visiting my hometown and hanging out with one of my closest friends. we were driving and it came on, and it along with the conversation we had earlier that night, helped both of us realize we were in love with each other. I moved back a few months later to be with him. we moved in together, got married, and it's our daughter's birthday today. so thank you, Lumineers, for helping a random couple of people who'd been hurt in the past realize they needed to take a shot at love.
