Ruby’s counting stars tonight
heaven’s baubles, hot and bright
eyes a-blazing, sheer delight,
diamonds twinkling in her sight

Ruby’s breathless, 1-2-3
where else would she want to be?
squeals of sheer reverie,
adorn her visage, can’t you see…

she’s hoping for that passing flight
a falling star across the night
to wish I may, wish I might,
a final sharing of last light

our Ruby’s got no more to live
all she’s done is give and give
if I could I’d give her mine,
for Ruby’s run out all her time


try and try with all our might
some hearts forget just how to fight
a final kiss, then goodnight,
Ruby’s with the stars tonight.

Ruby’s counting stars tonight
heaven’s baubles, hot and bright
eyes a-blazing, sheer delight,
diamonds twinkling in her sight

Ruby’s breathless, 1-2-3
where else would she want to be?
squeals of sheer reverie,
adorn her visage, can’t you see…

she’s hoping for that passing flight
a falling star across the night
to wish I may, wish I might,
a final sharing of last light

our Ruby’s got no more to live
all she’s done is give and give
if I could I’d give her mine,
for Ruby’s run out all her time


try and try with all our might
some hearts forget just how to fight
a final kiss, then goodnight,
Ruby’s with the stars tonight.
