Lyrics
I called you Ruby Tuesday
Cause you changed with each new day
Ever new, exciting
We were gliding on our way
Exploring each new color
From the palette of your love
I felt the light come shining down
From heaven up above
Then suddenly it seemed everything was wrong
One morning, you destroyed my favorite song
You said
Get it thru your head now baby
We had our time, it's over
We were not forever
Didn't you get that from the start
Your words were clear as crystal
So I got it thru my head
But still I just can't get it thru my heart
I've never been that lucky
When it comes down to romance
From the first time that I saw you
Never thought I had a chance
I couldn't have been more flattered
When you lured me with your smile
Visions of euphoria
And walking down the aisle
In one heartbeat, the light changed from green to red
My heart stopped when you looked at me and said
You said
Get it thru.....
Who needs this heartache?
Love is so absurd
you made my heart break
With 6 or 7 words
You said.....
