lirik lagu ruby (like a jewel) (live) – patty larkin
[verse 1]
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 th*rns
worn down at the sleeve
it’s a little too large for her and her shoulders bend
but she can care less about such things as these
there’s a radio on and it warms up the wind
like the hand of a friend in the breeze
[verse 2]
she sleeps on a grate behind copley place
where the hеat is escaping from skyscr*per sp*ce
and shе follows the news
from 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
and listen to the music for free
[chorus]
and it’s only the will to survive
only the look in her eye
that gets her by
gets her by
[verse 3]
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
[chorus]
now she still hears the sound of goodbye
it makes her hold on to the sky
and it gets her by
gets her by
gets her by
[verse 4]
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 th*rns
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
[chorus]
and it’s just one more reason to cry
it’s just one more reason to try
and it 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
