The Ruby And The Pearl Composer(s): Jay Livingston - Ray Evans First release by: Nat King Cole - 1952 Covered by multiple other artists
There's a warm red ecstasy to love That makes you tremble with its fire And there's a pure white majesty to love When you have both, you have your heart's desire
Can love be as warm as the ruby Can love be as pure as the pearl Just look in the heart of my love for you You'll find the ruby and the pearl
My love will endure as the diamond And shine with the shimmer of gold It glows as the bright star above for you A thing of beauty to behold
Come close and cling to my kiss Stay close and share the passion of this
Yes, love is as warm as the ruby And love is as pure as the pearl Just look in the heart of my love for you You'll find the ruby and the pearl
The ruby and the pearl
