Ruby Red
Yearning in Ruby Red: Love's Unattainable Hue
Lyrics
How could I? I'm so impure
Feeling impure and questioning one's worthiness.
There's no way
Expressing doubt about finding a solution or way forward.
It's so obscure
Describing the situation as unclear and hard to understand.
Not a single sign
Noticing a lack of clear indications or signals.
There's nowhere to hide
Feeling exposed and without a safe place to retreat.
Yesterday she passed right by
Recalling an encounter from the past.
She looked at me, then darted her eyes
Describing a fleeting interaction and the other person's avoidance.
I could never try
Expressing hesitancy and a lack of courage to pursue.
She would never be mine
Accepting the unattainability of the person.
How could I?
Reiterating the sense of inadequacy.
I can't help but cry
Admitting emotional vulnerability and sadness.
You don't know your true value
Encouraging self-awareness of one's value.
Ruby red
Introducing the symbol of "Ruby Red," possibly representing something precious.
I don't know if I could ever deserve you
Expressing uncertainty about deserving the precious thing.
So I'll kiss myself goodbye
Choosing to let go, perhaps due to feelings of unworthiness.
I don't know who I have been
Reflecting on a lack of self-awareness or identity.
I could never commit the sin
Refusing to engage in a perceived wrongdoing or moral transgression.
I'm so twisted over you
Feeling emotionally conflicted and entangled.
Running out of blue
Experiencing a sense of loss or depletion.
I was afraid she'd pull me in
Anticipating potential emotional entanglement.
I see her grin and I just spin
Reacting to the other person's actions with dizziness or confusion.
Oh Ruby Red
Repeating the symbolic reference to "Ruby Red" with a tone of despair.
I might as well be dead
Expressing a profound sense of hopelessness.
How could I?
Recalling the theme of inadequacy and emotional struggle.
I can't help but cry
Reiterating the emotional impact and vulnerability.
You don't know your true value
Encouraging awareness of one's inherent value.
Ruby red
Repeating the symbol of "Ruby Red" and its elusive nature.
I don't know if I could ever deserve you
Expressing continued uncertainty about deserving the precious thing.
So I'll kiss myself goodbye
Choosing to part ways, possibly due to perceived unworthiness.
Such a gem is hard to find
Describing the person as a rare and valuable find.
Digging down with nowhere to hide
Feeling exposed and vulnerable with no place to retreat.
If you ever had the time
Pondering the possibility of a connection if circumstances were different.
Could you somehow be mine?
Pleading for a chance at a connection, despite challenges.
