Foster The People - Ruby lyrics

[Foster The People - Ruby lyrics]

One yeah
Mmm

And there she goes
She's sitting real nice with her head
Full of advice from friends
And she walks around she tries to rearrange
But everything goes under her bed
And it's countless she's got a jar full of
Change saved up for vacation
And she's watching
She's watching her sons growing up
Just like their mom and it's hard for her

And I said, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
You gotta start lifting your
Head up, head up, head up
And I said, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
I know it's hard, but you gotta
Get outta bed, outta bed, outta bed

Yeah, she don't know what to do
She's got everything and nothing to lose

She's got a call from a guy
Just seeing if she's alright
(Better not panic, better not panic
Better not panic)
She's got a face full of tears held
Back by the strength of five mmm
And she says, "Happiness ain't free
Everybody fights just like me
But, I've given up the ability to retreat"

And I said, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
You gotta start lifting your
Head up, head up, head up
And I said, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
I know it's hard, but you gotta
Get outta bed, outta bed, outta bed

Yeah, she don't know what to do
She's got everything and nothing to lose

Yeah, there's time for us to figure it out
I'm there, so don't be scared
There's time for us to figure it out
Don't be, don't be scared

(Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby)
All alone, rest your head (Ruby, Ruby, Ruby)
On my lap when you're down (Ruby, Ruby, Ruby)
All alone, rest your head (Ruby, Ruby, Ruby)
On my lap when you're down (Ruby, Ruby, Ruby)
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Ruby, Ruby, Ruby)
Ooh, Ruby, don't cry (Ruby, Ruby, Ruby)
(Ruby, Ruby, Ruby) 'Cause, I am here
And I am here (Ruby, Ruby
Ruby) So don't you cry
'cause it'll be alright
