HERE COMES RUBY

here comes Ruby up my stairs
bones and feathers in her hair
I had a dream I saw her last night
I never did come true
there's nothing I believe in
I believe she knows that too

here comes Ruby right on time
forgiving me my biggest crime
you can't get it back from yesterday
the things you might have missed
Ruby she's the one regret
I never can resist

(chorus)
a little bit of fun never killed no one
that's what the preacher said
I heard his lies and closed my eyes
broke my double bed

and though I overhear
the fear like wind outside my skin
just blows and blows
her voice is louder in my soul

sometimes Ruby comes around
showing off her wedding gown
I had a dream I saw her last night
I never did come true
there's nothing I believe in
I believe she knows that too

(chorus)
