Ruby Blue — Can It Be

Ruby Blue - Can It Be
from: Down From Above, 1990


[Dsus2]There is the distance we got
Four thousand miles
From one pen to a[G]nother___[D]__

[Dsus2]Travelled words
are locked in my box
how many years 
will they stay
[G]hidden a[D]way

You [Em]send your ink on paper to me
My [Em]friends
took me [A]out
they couldn't be[Em]lieve it
When I [A]said that I'm a[Em]lone
We had a good [A]time
The start of a [Em]new life [tacet]
Then they took me home

[D]Can it be that you're waiting for me
do you [G]know what our love is
[D]Never saw such a pretty face before
do you [G]know what our love is

[D] [Dsus2]

[Dsus2]There is the telephone
There are some photographs
A penknife and a coin
And [G]time to [D]pass

So I [Dsus2]think of a vineyard
And hotel rooms
And various teas
and [G]loving sympathy

My [Em]friends come a[A]round
they give me a [Em]kick start
and some [A]happy compa[Em]ny
we talk about [A]stuff
we talk about [Em]good times [tacet]
we share memories

[D]Can it be that you'll wait for me
do you [G]know what our love is
[D]Never saw such a pretty face before
do you [G]know what our love is

[D]Can it be that you'll hold for me
do you [G]know what our love is
[D]Never saw such a pretty face before
do you [G]know what our love is

[D]Can it be that you're waiting for me
do you [G]know what our love is
[D]Never saw such a pretty face before
do you [G]know what our love is
