Ruby and the Dancer - Melissa Manchester[00:00:00]
Written by:Carole Bayer Sager/Melissa Manchester[00:00:02]
Falling on hard times the girl came home at last[00:00:12]
With her baggage of bad times her presence from the past[00:00:24]
Made the elders eyes to wander when she cried[00:00:36]
If you're looking for my love pass me by[00:00:48]
She was gonna be a dancer gifted by gods and kings[00:01:01]
And it all came so natural moving on angel's wings[00:01:13]
She said[00:01:24]
Ruby you knew me when my life was gay[00:01:25]
But if you're looking for my heart look away[00:01:36]
Now the elders she passes seem to stop and stare[00:02:01]
It's a shame about the dancer[00:02:14]
And the poor boy she left there[00:02:17]
But Ruby you loved me well[00:02:25]
The elders knew it too[00:02:29]
So will you take me with you now or they have taken you[00:02:37]
I am not bad or crazy[00:02:55]
I live here in a forest[00:03:01]
I see things through a rainbow[00:03:06]
I am a blossom come alive[00:03:13]
They have no way with changes they come in faceless numbers[00:03:18]
They cannot see my garden for I grew up on dreams[00:03:30]
Some of us may never grow but all of us need to know[00:03:42]
We need gardens to bloom in[00:03:55]
For there must always be room enough for all of us[00:04:01]
