  • All of her friends say she's amazing
    They can only imagine just how she feels
    Cause when she goes out she wears her brave face

    To hide the hurt inside she wont reveal
    But when she's alone Ruby puts her red dress on
    She sings along while dancin' to that old love song
    It takes her back to when he used to tell her baby you're the prettiest girl I've ever known

    And the memory is strong when Ruby puts her red dress on
    She keeps the room jsut how he left it
    The book by the bed his shirt on the chair
    She doesn't think just to hold onto let pieces of a life thats no longer there
    So when shes alone Ruby puts her red dress on
    She sings along while dancing to that old love song
    It takes her back to when he used to tell her baby you're the prettiest girl I've ever known
    And the memory is strong when Ruby puts her red dress on
    Her red dress on

    It takes her back to when he used to tell her baby you're the prettiest girl I've ever known
    And the memory is strong when Ruby puts her red dress on
    Her red dress on
    Ruby puts her red dress on
    Her red dress oon
