Ivy
Ruby Haunt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sky was black and your heart was blue
Nothing to see and nothing to do
How I wish this all could be true
It will work everytime
(It will work everytime)
(It will work everytime)
You will see yourself alive
You will see your light arrive
(You wil see yourself alive)
(You will see your...)
The lyrics of Ruby Haunt's song Ivy may at first seem straightforward, but upon closer analysis, they reveal a deeper meaning. The opening line "In a dream I was away with you" suggests an escape from reality, a momentary reprieve from daily struggles. The mention of a black sky and a blue heart implies sadness and despair, a feeling of being lost and alone. Yet despite this, there is a wish for this dream to be real, to have something to hold onto.
The repeated phrase "It will work every time" adds a sense of hope, almost like a mantra. Maybe love will conquer all, or maybe this dream will become a reality. The last two lines, "You will see yourself alive / You will see your light arrive" offer a glimmer of hope. Perhaps the escape from reality in the dream can serve as a guiding light, illuminating a path towards a better future.
Overall, the song Ivy by Ruby Haunt speaks to the universal desire for escape, hope, and connection.

This song makes me want to take a long road trip with my significant other. I love that the moody, synthy late-80's sound made a come-back in the best way possible.
