lyrics

ruby goes to the heath
beneath her worn weathered shawl
ruby watches kites takes
delight at every child who calls

and the memories they bring
this paper and string on the wind
and she smiles
and puts this sorry man to shame
and i will never say
i'm lonely again

ruby digs through bags pulls out rags
that she pushes in a pram
ruby has a sign it's just one line
'spare me change if you can'

and the coin in her hand
means nothing to this wealthy man
but she smiles
and puts this sorry man to shame
and i will never say
'm lonely again

ruby lays her head
on a bed made from leaves
ruby tries to count
the countless stars
that are shining through the trees

and for each there's a wish
and happiness can be just this
for she smiles and
puts this sorry man to shame
yes she puts this sorry man to shame
and i will never say
i'm lonely again
