Ruby Tuesday
Rod Stewart · Other Songs - Rod Stewart
Yesterday don't matter if it's gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
Nobody knows
She goes and goes
Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...
Don't question why she needs to be so free
She'll tell you it's the only way to be
She just can't be chained
To a life where nothing's gained
And nothing's lost
At such a cost
Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...
There's no time to lose, I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams
And you will lose your mind.
Ain't life unkind?
Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Still I'm gonna miss you
Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...
miss you.....

Released during a period where he was solidifying his status as a leading figure in British rock, the song exemplifies the polished yet gritty sound that characterized his work in the late 1970s. It has since transcended its original era to become a timeless classic, frequently covered by artists across various genres and recognized for its enduring appeal in live performances. The recording captures the essence of Stewart's ability to merge rock energy with a sophisticated, storytelling approach that continues to resonate with audiences worldwide.
