Ruby red, baby blue
What do colors mean to you?
If I ruled the heavens
And the stars in the sky
I'd still be a slave
To baby blues eyes
Ah, ruby red, baby blue
I'd still be a slave to you
My happiness came
The day that you said
You'd love me forever
Through lips ruby red
Ah, ruby red, baby blue
I found my happiness with you
Then another came along it seems
And shattered all my hopes and dreams
And now the only shade that my tearful eyes can see is jealous green
I lied to my heart, dear
And tried to forget
Ruby red, baby blue
I think of you yet
Ah, ruby red, baby blue
Two shades of sadness since we're through
