Lyrics
I came to Stratford on a perfect Tuesday morning
The bluest sky the fall could bring
With no agenda, no place I had to be
Except to see a guy who sings
I knew he lived here and his favourite haunts in town
Where he drank his coffee every day
I found the place, stepped in and looked around
Even disappointment felt okay
Didn't have to talk with him
Or tell him all my favourite songs
But if he asked I'd be glad to say
'Cause when you're looking for Ron
And that's the only thing you have to do
No better way to spend your day
Sitting on a bench, trying to time it perfectly
I looked around to scan the crowds
Lucky for me the tourists left two months ago
So things were slow and not so loud
I thought I saw his silhouette from far away
His hair's the most distinctive clue
A third false sighting only made the game more fun
'Cause I had nothing else to do
Didn't have to talk with him
Or tell him all my favourite songs
But if he asked I'd be glad to say
'Cause when you're looking for Ron
And that's the only thing you have to do
No better way to spend your day
I was looking for Ron in all the wrong places
Don't think I'd ever find him here
And if destiny frowned upon my single-minded focus
Five places advertised craft beer
I had an hour left before I had to leave
And face a different reality
I thought by now I'd spot the new man in town
It was probably best to let him be
But something kept pressing me to try again just one last time
So without thinking I was gone
Walked through the front door of his favourite coffee shop
And in the corner, there was Ron
Didn't have to talk with him
Or tell him all my favourite songs
But if he asked I'd be glad to say
'Cause when you're looking for Ron
And that's the only thing you have to do
No better way to spend your day
No better way to spend your day
