(See lyrics below.) While a video like this is not unique for me, It has been some time since I created one using a pop song. I needed to break out of the mold for bit for my own sanity. Tom Wait's voice is an acquired taste and I confess to not liking much of his work because his voice is so unusual but this piece and Broken Bicycles both spoke to me so I had to put my own "spin" on them. These are not created on a whim and many hours of detailed work goes into creating them. I search sometimes for days for appropriate photos and sometimes edit the photograph to fit my needs. Sometimes I even edit the music. In this case I put a softer fade into the brass introduction and I put more fade into the final chord. Otherwise the music is exactly as it was when I purchased it. I appreciate your viewing it and I always appreciate kind comments and thumbs up if you choose. I would particularly appreciate it if you should choose to share it on sites such as Face Book. I have created almost one-hundred different music videos (such as these) over the years and I hope you won't assume they are all like this one. Each is unique in it's own right. My video of Wait's "Broken Bicycles" can be seen here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YroQxUyg6k lyrics for Ruby's Arms 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 wind 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 freight yards, Have kept their fires burning, So Jesus Christ this god damn 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.
