Marc Almond - Ruby Red Lyrics
Well it seems you have a heartI saw it once so I know its trueYou let it out on sundays whenYou let it beat me black and blueWhen you went and stole my heartI saw it go so I know its trueIt was a ruby, ruby, ruby redIt was the most precious gift I could give to youIt was as red as the sun in the evening skyIt was as red as the fire in a panthers eyeIt was as red as the rose under the summer sunLike a fire from a killers gunRuby, ruby redShine a light onto this boys bedTheres a street lamp glowing in my headOh, ruby, ruby, ruby redWell it seems you have a soulYou let it go so I know its trueIt was a ruby, ruby, ruby redIt keeps me warm when Im feeling sad and blueWell you went and stole my heartI saw it go so I know its trueI wrapped it up in a bouquet of barbed wireIt was the wickedest gift I could give to youIt was as red as the sun in the evening skyIt was as red as the fire in a panthers eyeIt was as red as the rose under the summer sunLike a fire from a killers gunRuby, ruby redShine a light onto this boys bedTheres a street lamp glowing in my headOh, ruby, ruby, ruby redOh just like johnny rio babyI need to be desiredI give up looking for my pastFor the ones I left behindRuby red, ruby red, hey, hey, heyRuby, ruby redShine a light onto this boys bedTheres a street lamp glowing in my headOh, ruby, ruby, ruby redIt was the most precious jewelI could give to youColour me red when Im feeling blueThe colour of a kissIn a young girls dreamThe mark of a guillotineA drop of blood from a single thornRed wet sheets in the afternoonA red light leading to my tombRuby red all around my roomRuby, ruby redOh shine a light onto this boys bedOh, ruby, ruby, ruby red
