Ruby red, baby blue What do colors mean to you? If I ruled the heavens And the stars in the sky I'd still be a slave To baby blues eyes Ah, ruby red, baby blue I'd still be a slave to you My happiness came The day that you said You'd love me forever Through lips ruby red Ah, ruby red, baby blue I found my happiness with you Then another came along it seems And shattered all my hopes and dreams And now the only shade that my tearful eyes can see is jealous green I lied to my heart, dear And tried to forget Ruby red, baby blue I think of you yet Ah, ruby red, baby blue Two shades of sadness since we're through
