I have a hope that you can hear my quiet call
The shadow is already falling on the white walls, nothing prevents it
I guess you're as pretty as you've been so many times
Oh Ruby, don't take your love away from me
I didn't invent war, someone just pointed with his finger
They only taught me how to shoot, but the other one shot first
And I do not know myself whether I'm destined to live or to crawl
Oh Ruby, I so want you around
It's miraculous to know that I'm still awake at all
That what a man is to a woman, I can't be to you
Ruby, I understand, and maybe it's only a foolish nonsense
I rather dare only to wish
Oh Ruby, don't take your love away from me
Why are you drowning in the fog, I hope you're not going anywhere
And I don't understand why I hear myself swearing after so many years
I will only reach out to you when I can no longer stand up
Oh Ruby, don't take your love away from me
Oh Ruby, Ruby, I so much would love to live
