Heather Nova - Ruby Red lyrics

I've got a ruby red desire

Like a virus, like my last hope

I've got a ruby red desire

I've got to hear the red bird sing

I've got to rip this cord

And rinse this lazy blood

Clear a path and walk away

I've been waiting for the sky to fall

I've been thinkin I could lose it all

I've been waiting for the saftey net

Tell myself that I'm not ready yet

And every memory's a dream

And each uncertainty reminds me why

I saw a kid outside playing by a moonogate

making paper things that fly

I've been waiting for the sky to fall

I've been thinkin I could lose it all

I've been waiting for the saftey net

Tell myself that I'm not ready yet

I want to live

I want to live

I want to live

I've been waiting for the sky to fall

I've been thinkin I could lose it all

I've been waiting for the saftey net

Tell myself that I'm not ready yet

I want to live

I want to live

I want to live
