I will leave behind all of my clothes, I wore when I was with you
All I need's my railroad boots, and my leather jacket
As I say goodbye to Ruby's arms, although my heart is breaking
I will steal away out through your blinds, for soon you will be waking.

The morning light has washed your face, and everything is turning blue now,
Hold on to your pillow case there's nothing I can do now
As I say goodbye to Ruby's arms, you'll find another soldier
And I swear to God by Christmas-time
There'll be someone else to hold you.

The only thing I'm taking is...
the scarf off of your clothesline
I'll hurry past your chest of drawers, and your broken window chimes
As I say goodbye, I'll say goodbye, say goodbye to Ruby's arms.

I'll feel my way down the darkened hall, and out into the morning
The hobos at the freightyards, have kept their fires burning
Jesus Christ, this goddamn rain
Will someone put me on a train?
I'll never kiss your lips again...
or break your heart...
As i say goodbye, I'll say goodbye, say goodbye to Ruby's arms

Tom Waits - "Ruby's Arms"



 
I love that song...sooooo sad! {#Arrowu}{#Cry}

It sort of reminds me of this one {#Arrowd}

Leaving Training (Gillian Welch)
The finest silver needle
Shouldn't ever slide between
When lovers stand as parting friends
Gonna put myself on a leaving train
And I won't come back again

I could wait 'til morning
If it don't come down today
A dime says I won't be satisfied
Gonna put myself on a leaving train
And I won't come back again

The words that go unspoken
On the color of the sun
And the coolin' air of the evening shade
And the breathless hours on the sleeping plane
And the last taillight on a leaving train
And I won't come back again
And I won't come back again

Personally this straight person doesn't care either, was just noticing the irony and obviously more than likely all of the band members are not gay, but again, I do not care either.

Here is a nice little XTC ditty off of their great album Oranges and Lemons in 1989, I remember hearing an interview about how they finally said screw the industry and released a song from the heart;

Anytime you rise, I'm here,
And I'm crazy for you pink thing.
You make me want to laugh,
You make me want to cry,
When I stroke your head I feel a hundred heartbeats high,
Pink thing.

I want to take you out and show you round the world,
Pink thing it'll be OK.
If I could only wake you from your slumber curled,
Pink thing what would straight folks say?

That man isn't fit to enter heaven.
That man is a sinner,
Ever burning in disgrace.
Pink thing, spit in my face,
I'd love you for it.

Anytime you call, I'll fall,
Into madness for you pink thing.
You make me want to live.
You make me want to die.
And when I stroke your head I feel a hundred heartbeats high,
Pink thing.

I want to take you out and show you to the girls,
Pink thing they're a whole new tribe.
If you could only see the way the way the gingham swirls,
Pink thing it's a whole new vibe.

That man isn't fit to be a father.
That man is a sinner,
'Fore they cast me down to die,
Pink thing, spit in my eye,
I'd love you for it.
Yes, I'd love you for it.

Anytime you rise, I'm here,
And I'm crazy for you pink thing.
You make me want to laugh,
You make me want to cry,
When I stroke your head I feel a hundred heartbeats high,
Pink thing.
Hundred heartbeats high,
Pink thing.
Hundred heartbeats high.

I want to introduce you,
Take you to the brink thing.
I want to introduce you,
Tell me what you think thing. I want to introduce you,
Make that missing link thing.
Don't you think it's time you met some female pink thing?

You make me want to laugh,
You make me want to cry,
So why is it I'm happy when there's tears down in your eye?

Little pink thing.

I certainly don't think the whole band is Gay, nor do I care. They play good music that is all I care about, but obviously someone is and I was just making a note of it.

BTW, marriage and homosexuality have very little to with one another.

After all you put me through,
you'd think I'd despise you.
But in the end, I wanna thank you.

Cuz you made me that much stronger.
After all of the stealing and cheating
You probably think that I hold resentment for you
But, uh uh, oh no, you're wrong
'Cause if it wasn't for all that you tried to do
I wouldn't know .. just how capable
I am to pull through
So I wanna say thank you

'Cause it makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
Makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter

Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh After all of the fights and the lies
Yes you're wanting to harm me
but that won't work anymore
No more, uh uh, it's over
'Cause if it wasn't for all of your torture
I wouldn't know how .. to be this way now,
I'll never back down
So I wanna say thank you

'Cause it makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
Makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter

Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
It makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

How could this man I thought I knew
Turn out to be unjust,
So cruel?
Could only see the good in you
Pretended .. not to see the truth
You tried to hide your lies,
Disguise yourself
Through .. living in denial
But in the end you'll see
YOU-WONT-STOP-ME!!

I am a fighter
I'm a
I ain't gonna stop
There is no turning back
I've had enough

Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
Makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter

Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

These songs helped me a lot during my last break up.  Coincidentally, they both have "Let Go" in the title.

Just Let Go - Fischerspooner
Let Go - Frou Frou.  My favorite part of that song:  "it's alright
'cause there's beauty in the breakdown," which is so true.

Also, the whole Garbage album, Bleed Like Me

1. Bad Boyfriend    
2. Run Baby Run      
3. Right Between the Eyes      
4. Why Do You Love Me      
5. Bleed Like Me      
6. Metal Heart      
7. Sex Is Not the Enemy      
8. It's All Over But the Crying      
9. Boys Wanna Fight      
10. Why Don't You Come Over      
11. Happy Home

Dylan - 'Just Like A Woman'
Dylan - 'It 'Aint Me Babe'

And....

Flash Company

First I loved William and then I loved John
But now I love Thomas he's a clever young man
With his white coat and stocking and his high ankle shoe
He wears a velvet jacket like a flash lad he goes

Fiddling and dancing was all his delight
But keeping flash company has ruined him quite
Has ruined him quite and a great many more
If it hadn't have been flash company he'd never have been so poor

Take this yellow handkerchief in remembrance of me
And wear it around your neck when in flash company
Dry up your briny tears and don't look so sad
There's plenty more flash girls all around to be had

Rocks shall run to water and the sea shall run dry
If I should prove false to the lad that loves I
The sweetest strawberries shall grow in the sea
If I should prove false to the one that loves me

First I loved William and then I loved John
But now I love Thomas he's a clever young man
With his white coat and stocking and his high ankle shoe
He wears a velvet jacket like a flash lad he goes

Take this yellow handkerchief in remembrance of me
And wear it around your neck when in flash company
Dry up your briny tears and don't look so sad
There's plenty more flash girls all around to be had

                  Trad. folk.
