This is a song about the feelings of a lovelorn fellow invited by the girl he loves to attend her wedding to someone else

lyrics

The girl I loved got married, but she didn’t marry me
The girl I loved got married, but she didn’t marry me
Oh Lord I’m gonna miss her, and what she did for me

She was as pretty as a picture, looked so lovely dressed in white
She was as pretty as a picture, looked so lovely dressed in white
Her smile was brighter than the sunshine, she made me feel alright

I’m making plans for leaving, but that won’t get her off my mind
I’m taking my memories with me, but leaving a broken heart behind - yeah

When the wedding was all over, I stood in line to kiss the bride
When the wedding was all over, I stood in line to kiss the bride
It broke my heart to have to kiss her, to kiss that girl goodbye
