Lyrics Ruby's Arms - Frente!

Ruby's Arms

I will leave behind all of my clothes
I wore when I was with you
All I need’s my railroad boots
And my leather jacket
As I say goodbye to Ruby’s arms
Although my heart is breaking
I will steal away out through your blinds
Soon you will be waking
Morning light has washed your face
And everything is turning blue
Hold on to your pillow case
There’s nothing that I can do
As I say goodbye to Ruby’s arms
You’ll find another soldier
And I swear to God by christmas time
There’ll be someone else to hold you
The only thing I’m taking is
The scarf off of your clothes
I’ll hurry past your chest of drawers
And your broken wind chimes
As I say goodbye
I’ll say goodbye
I’ll say goodbye to Ruby’s arms
I will steal away down the darken hall
Out into the morning
The hobos at the freightyards
Have kept their fires burning
So Jesus Christ this goddamn rain
Will someone put me on a train
And I’ll never kiss your lips again
Or break your heart
As I say goodbye
I say goodbye
Say goodbye to Ruby’s arms
