Sitting late at night,
You had a fight with your lover,
Cause he's with another instead,
But what about us?
What about everything, we've been through,
Is this how you're treating me now?
I hope that someday somewhere,
You'll be waiting for my call
(Chorus)
Ruby, Don't you abuse me?
I do you no harm,
Ruby, You don't wanna lose me,
You have me undone,
Ruby,
Don't you confuse me,
Don't you misuse me,
All I want is your love
Looking into your mind,
Bursting at the seams,
With your thoughts and your dreams,
Scared of what I might find,
But what have I got?
Trying to stay on my feet and baby,
Just get a seat on your train of thought
All these years you never gave a damn,
Now can't you see me for who I am?
Chorus
I don't need to borrow your money,
Though I don't have a dime to my name,
Please believe me; I'm not trying to be funny,
Just lend me your ear all the same
Ruby,
Don't you abuse me?
I did you no wrong,
Baby I'm under,
You're lighting and thunder,
My world's in your storm,
Ruby,
Don't you confuse me?
Don't you misuse me?
All I want is your love
