Waiting for Ruth to Come Home

Waiting for Ruth to Come Home - Jayber Crow[00:00:00]

Old Warren in the basement[00:00:20]

Working on an antique lamp[00:00:23]

His hands move to his chest[00:00:28]

To hold the heart attack[00:00:31]

He makes his way upstairs[00:00:36]

To reach the telephone[00:00:39]

But he does not call anyone[00:00:44]

No he's waiting for Ruth to come home[00:00:47]

Outside the leaves are turning[00:00:52]

To meet their deathbed on a breeze[00:00:56]

They wait in brilliant colors[00:01:01]

Warren settles to his knees[00:01:04]

The blood fills up his face as[00:01:09]

He sits there alone[00:01:13]

Rememb'ring quietly[00:01:17]

And waiting for Ruth to come home[00:01:21]

Don't wake the babe who sleeps next door[00:01:26]

Don't disturb neighbors[00:01:30]

With the siren's roar[00:01:32]

The eve is quiet[00:01:34]

I will be fine[00:01:36]

No need to fight this pain's delight[00:01:38]

Reminds me of the life I've lived[00:01:42]

And to me so much has been given[00:01:47]

Thanks be to God[00:01:51]

I've just one pleas[00:01:53]

If I[00:01:58]

Should die[00:02:02]

Let me in peace[00:02:06]
