Lyrics

Ruby Church

[Verse 1]

You stood in the center of a ruby church

A sunbeam glittered on your back

Three women in red turned to see

You laughing uncontrollably

[Chorus]

You turned around in

A lonely state of grace

You stood your ground

A smile upon your face

A smile upon your face

You turned around in

A lonely state of grace

You stood your ground

A smile upon your face

A smile upon your face

[Verse 2]

You raised your chin to the sky

Laughter sparkled from your eyes

The smell of spring on a blossom breeze

You said, I'll be here. I'll be free

[Chorus]

You turned around in

A lonely state of grace

You stood your ground

A smilе upon your face

A smile upon your face

A smilе upon your face

With a smile upon your face
