[Verse 1]
You're left high and dry 'cause she didn't get you
You'd settle for her but she wouldn't let you
What did you expect when you're looking for
Someone who's perfect?

[Chorus]
My eyes think I'm searching for Ruby Blue
So might as well just make do with you, oh-oh

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, o-oh-o-oh-oh
Ooh, o-oh-o-oh-oh

[Verse 2]
She won't scale the heights that your standards set her
Ruby Blue's in sight, what could you do better?
What did you expect when you're looking for
Something that's perfect

[Chorus]
My eyes think I'm searching for Ruby Blue
So might as well just make do with you
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oooh-oh

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, o-oh-o-oh-oh
Ooh, o-oh-o-oh-oh
[Verse 3]
Strikes me strange that loneliness is unattractive
Did you compromise? Would you backtrack if
You could swap your suffocating comforts
And turn your rubies blue?

[Chorus]
My eyes think I'm searching for Ruby Blue
So might as well just make do with you
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oooh-oh

[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh, o-oo-o-oo-oo)
(Ooh, o-oo-o-oo-oo)
(Oooo, oooo!)

[Chorus]
My eyes think I'm searching for Ruby Blue
So might as well just make do with you
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oooh!

[Outro]
Oooh, o-oh-o-oh-oh
Oooh, o-oh-o-oh-oh
Oooh, o-oh-o-oh-oh
Oooh, o-oh-o-oh-oh
