Ruby, I swear I cared
Well, that never last
Golden's waiting right there
Reflecting in an hourglass
Tuesday I told myself
Wednesday was never gonna end
You know I'll always break a bend
I never try, darling
Thought you knew it was fun
No, you thought I'd never run
I'm going somewhere you can't come
And she'll spend her time cooking
I'll love her 'cause she looks nice
Enough to know I'll never go
We're sentimental and so alone
That year you felt so near
Driving down the coast
Windswept, you said
"I bet I'll love you the most"
Sweet as the song you sang
I heard the ring never rang
And you know I hate to take the blame
I never try, darling
Thought you knew it was fun
No, you thought I'd never run
I'm going somewhere you can't come
And she'll spend her time cooking
I'll love her 'cause she looks nice
Enough to know I'll never go
We're sentimental and so alone
We're sentimental and so alone
We're sentimental and so alone
