Dear Ruby lyrics

Ruby, my dear Hold back that tear I know he's gone Your love has flown You're all alone Oh, I know you cry There's no reply Pain lingers on It doesn't go Cos you'll say so One day he came to you And made the music play In his way You said you'd rather die Than say goodbye But there'll come a day Though he's away You'll sing his song You'll carry on Ruby, my dear One day he came to you And made the music play In his way You said you'd rather die Than say goodbye But there'll come a day Though he's away You will sing his song You'll carry on Ruby, my dear
