"Ruby" lyrics - THE JAYHAWKS

Ruby
Where have you gone?
You're a shadow floating on
The last day of summer
The ghost of your hero
Your love thought lost in war
Whistling always by your kitchen door
Lost in the mercy line
It will change
As soon as you get home

[Chorus:]
Comes for you now
The one you adored
Comes for you now
The one you adored

He's saying, "Baby
I know I went away
But I still want you
My valentine

[Bridge:]
Dry your eyes
While you're lying there
You're lying there waiting
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
(Ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh)

[Chorus:]
Comes for you now
The one you adored
Comes for you now
The one you adored
Comes for you now

[Outro:]
Ruby
All the rest you wanted
Two shadows floating on
Two shadows floating on
The last day of summer
