Ruby Red (live)

This is 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
Shinе a light onto this boy's bed
There's a street lamp glowing in my hеad
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
(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

Well 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
