Ruby, where have you gone?
You're a shadow floating on
The last day of summer
The ghost of your hero
Your love thought lost in war
Whistling always by your kitchen door

Lost in the mercy line
It will change
As soon as you get home

Comes for you now the one you adored
Comes for you now the one you adored

He's sayin' baby
I know I went away
But I still want you
My valentine

Dry your eyes
While you're lyin' there
You're lyin' there waiting
Ah-ah
Ah-ah
Ah-ah

Comes for you now the one you adored
Comes for you now the one you adored
Comes for you now

Ruby, all the rest you wanted
Two shadows floating on
Two shadows floating on
The last day of summer
