Ruby Red

Well it seems you have a heart

I saw it once so i know it's true

You let it out on sundays when

You let it beat me black and blue

When you went and stole my heart

I saw it go so i know it's true

It was a ruby, ruby, ruby red

It was the most precious gift i could give to you



It was as red as the sun in the evening sky

It was as red as the fire in a panther's eye

It was as red as the rose under the summer sun

Like a fire from a killer's gun



Ruby, ruby red

Shine a light onto this boy's bed

There's a street lamp glowing in my head

Oh, ruby, ruby, ruby red



Well it seems you have a soul

You let it go so i know it's true

It was a ruby, ruby, ruby red

It keeps me warm when i'm feeling sad and blue

Well you went and stole my heart

I saw it go so i know it's true

I wrapped it up in a bouquet of barbed wire

It was the wickedest gift i could give to you



It was as red as the sun in the evening sky

It was as red as the fire in a panther's eye

It was as red as the rose under the summer sun

Like a fire from a killer's gun



Ruby, ruby red

Shine a light onto this boy's bed

There's a street lamp glowing in my head

Oh, ruby, ruby, ruby red



Oh just like johnny rio baby

I need to be desired

I give up looking for my past

For the ones i left behind

Ruby red, ruby red, hey, hey, hey



Ruby, ruby red

Shine a light onto this boy's bed

There's a street lamp glowing in my head

Oh, ruby, ruby, ruby red



It was the most precious jewel

I could give to you

Colour me red when i'm feeling blue

The colour of a kiss

In a young girl's dream

The mark of a guillotine

A drop of blood from a single thorn

Red wet sheets in the afternoon

A red light leading to my tomb

Ruby red all around my room



Ruby, ruby red

Oh shine a light onto this boy's bed

Oh, ruby, ruby, ruby red
