Sitting late at night

You had a fight with your lover

Cause he's with another instead

But what about us?

What about everything we've been through?

Is this how you're treating me now?

I hope that someday, somewhere

You'll be waiting for my call

Ruby, don't you abuse me

I do you no harm, no

Ruby, you don't wanna lose me

You have me undone, oh no, no

Ruby, don't you confuse me

Don't you misuse me

All I want is your love

Looking into your mind

Bursting at the seams

With your thoughts and your dreams

Scared of what I might find

But what have I got?

Trying to stay on my feet and baby

Just get a seat on your train of thought

All these years you never gave a damn

Now can't you see me for who I am?

And baby, Ruby, don't you abuse me

I do you no harm, oh no

Ruby, don't wanna lose me

You have me undone, oh no, no

Ruby, don't you confuse me

Don't you misuse me

All I want is your love

I don't need to borrow your money

Though I don't have a dime to my name

Please believe me, I'm not ever trying to be funny

Lend me your ear all the same

Hey

Ruby, don't you abuse me

I do you no harm

Baby I'm under

Your lighting and thunder

My world's in your storm

Ruby, don't you confuse me

Don't you misuse me

All I want is your love

Ruby, don't you abuse me

I do you no harm, oh
