Testo Ruby - Live - Patty Larkin
Testo della canzone Ruby - Live (Patty Larkin), tratta dall'album In The Square (Live)
Her face is as long as a night that won't end
She watches time pass like she's seen everything
Her jacket is torn with brambles and thorns
Worn down at the sleeve
It's a little too large for her shoulders bent
But she could care less about such things as ease
There's a radio on and it warms up the wind
Like the hand of a friend in the breeze
She sleeps on a grate behind Copley Place
Where the heat is escaping from skyscraper space
She follows the news of a paper that's used
By some worker in there
She clips out the notices and pins them inside
Her Salvation coat lying there beside her
Before it gets dark she's gonna walk to the park
Listen to the music for free
It's only the will to survive
Only the look in her eye
That gets her by
Gets her by
She heads across town in no particular direction
Her face wears the look of a lack of expression
She's long given up her idea of perfection
In this life
She remembers a guy that she saw in the gutter
Crying out for a sister or a brother
He looked like her father, she felt like his mother
She wanted to be his wife
But she still hears the sound of goodbye
Makes her hold on to the sky
And it gets her by
Gets her by
Gets her by
Her face is as long as a night that won't end
She watches time pass like she's seen everything
Her jacket is torn with brambles and thorns
Worn down at the sleeve
Last time I saw her it was down by the river
I looked in my pocket to see what I could give her
She sat down for a while, gave me a little smile
Looked straight ahead then at me
It's just one more reason to cry
It's just one more reason to try
And that gets me by
Gets me by
Only the will to survive
Only a look in the eye
Gets us by
Gets us by
Gets us by
