Let it never be said that romance is dead 'Cause there's so little else occupying my head There is nothing I need, 'cept the function to breathe But I'm not really fussed doesn't matter to me Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Do ya do ya do ya do ya Know what your doing, doing to me Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Due to lack of interest Tomorrow is canceled Let the clocks be reset and the pendulums held 'Cause there's nothing at all 'cept the space in between Finding out what you're called and repeating your name Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Do ya do ya do ya do ya Know what your doing, doing to me Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Could it be could it be that you're joking with me And you don't really see you with me Could it be could it be that you're joking with me And you don't really see you with me Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Do ya do ya do ya do ya Know what your doing, doing to me Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby Do ya do ya do ya do ya What your doing, doing to me
