[00:00:00] Ruby and the Dancer - Melissa Manchester

[00:00:02] Written by：Carole Bayer Sager/Melissa Manchester

[00:00:12] Falling on hard times the girl came home at last

[00:00:24] With her baggage of bad times her presence from the past

[00:00:36] Made the elders eyes to wander when she cried

[00:00:48] If you're looking for my love pass me by

[00:01:01] She was gonna be a dancer gifted by gods and kings

[00:01:13] And it all came so natural moving on angel's wings

[00:01:24] She said

[00:01:25] Ruby you knew me when my life was gay

[00:01:36] But if you're looking for my heart look away

[00:02:01] Now the elders she passes seem to stop and stare

[00:02:14] It's a shame about the dancer

[00:02:17] And the poor boy she left there

[00:02:25] But Ruby you loved me well

[00:02:29] The elders knew it too

[00:02:37] So will you take me with you now or they have taken you

[00:02:55] I am not bad or crazy

[00:03:01] I live here in a forest

[00:03:06] I see things through a rainbow

[00:03:13] I am a blossom come alive

[00:03:18] They have no way with changes they come in faceless numbers

[00:03:30] They cannot see my garden for I grew up on dreams

[00:03:42] Some of us may never grow but all of us need to know

[00:03:55] We need gardens to bloom in

[00:04:01] For there must always be room enough for all of us
