They say, Ruby, you're like a dream,
Not always what you seem;
And though my heart may break when I awake,
Let it be so, I only know, Ruby, it's you.
They say, Ruby, you're like a song,
You don't know right from wrong.
And in your eyes I see heartbreak for me;
But from the start, who stole my heart? Ruby, it's you.
I hear your voice and I must come to you
I have no choice--what else can I do?
They say, Ruby, you're like a flame;
Into my life you came.
And though I should beware, still, I don't care.
You thrill me so, I only know, Ruby, it's you.
