"Damn Ruthie" lyrics

We met at... a coffee shop on Main Street
I walked in, she said "hello" to me
Then she smiled and that just knocked me off my feet
As she left, her friend said, "goodbye Ruthie"

Damn Ruthie
Why did you have to do this to me
Left me thinking 'bout what we would never be
I know it's not your fault, you haunt my dreams, but
Damn Ruthie
Yeah the odds are I won't see you again
But I can't help but wonder if I did
What would I say to you then

I'm sure you had some deep dark secrets
And you weren't as perfect as you seemed
But I never got to see your flaws or imperfections
Now you're the perfect memory

Damn Ruthie
Why did you have to do this to me
Left me thinking 'bout what we would never be
I know it's not your fault, you haunt my dreams, but
Damn Ruthie
Yeah the odds are I won't see you again
But I can't help but wonder if I did
What would I say to you then

Damn Ruthie
Why did you have to do this to me
Left me thinking 'bout what we would never be
I know it's not your fault, you haunt my dreams, but
Damn Ruthie
Yeah the odds are I won't see you again
But I can't help but wonder if I did
What would I say to you then

We met at... a coffee shop on Main Street
I walked in, she said "hello" to me
Then she smiled and that just knocked me off my feet
As she left, her friend said, "goodbye Ruthie"
