Tonight
Where do we go from here?
The road through Ruby Falls has reached the end
And now we're digging in the sand
They're promising that help is on the way
Love, confession number one
Impossible and sorry
And judge, can you look the other way?
Some things are best unsaid
And now where can we go from here
When all the morning birds have gone away
Two wrongs won't navigate tonight
The afterlife is all in the end
The afterlife is ours in the end
Love, don't look me in the eye
Just wash it all down
And judge, can you let me run away
We're outta here, straight outta here
Somewhere down buried in the sand
Two birds give out a song
And all of Ruby Falls is singin' along
Sing along...
(...gone and turned away (?))
(...gonna make you pay (?))

| colleen (Toronto, Canada) | Posted: Jan 10, 2013 - 13:22 No matter how many times I hear this, I love it just as much. Question: Is this song from a soundtrack? It is so descriptive....Ruby Falls....the judge....? |

| Deadwing (Cincinnati OH) | Posted: Nov 30, 2012 - 14:39 My favorite Guster song |
| d-don (Oregon) | Posted: Nov 30, 2012 - 14:39 Tight guitars, tighter harmonies...just what the doctor ordered on this Oregon autumn afternoon. |

| Shaken_Bake (Mile High City-or is it just me?) | Posted: Jul 22, 2012 - 15:34 Funny, every time The Funeral starts to play, I think it's going to be Ruby Falls! 1wolfy wrote: guitar sounds a lot like The Funeral by Band of Horses |
| Giselle62 (many bear, big rock, estuary California) | Posted: Jul 16, 2012 - 21:52 Yep, I love this too. |
| BCarn (Victoria, B.C.) | Posted: Jul 09, 2012 - 16:48 Quite Likeable! |
| kingart (Brooklyn NY) | Posted: Jul 04, 2012 - 06:56 For the first 5 seconds, I always think this is that tune by the Red Hot Chilie Poopers. I'd much much rather hear Guster. |
| amusicfan (UK) | Posted: Jul 01, 2012 - 10:58 Great track, new to me :) |

| paranoidfloyd (Saskatchewan, Canada) | Posted: May 17, 2012 - 09:52 I never tire of hearing this song. I bought the album after hearing this on RP - great stuff. |
| TJS (Bradley, Il) | Posted: May 17, 2012 - 09:49 Those harmonies right before the last verse give me the chills every time. |
| stunix (Narrowboat nr Caen Locks) | Posted: May 17, 2012 - 09:49 the more I hear this, the more it has grown on me to the point where by I have got to give it a 9. |
| Toke (Bournemouth UK) | Posted: May 14, 2012 - 13:03 I give it a 7 for the horn playing alone ... not a million ''MILES'' away from whom I am thinking of. |
| oldsinger (Wexford, PA) | Posted: May 14, 2012 - 12:41 As I understand the definition, this is most certainly a "driveway song" (can't go in the house until it's over)! |
| Easyrider | Posted: May 07, 2012 - 04:58 Just love this tune☺ |
| Candela (Trondheim, Norway) | Posted: May 01, 2012 - 16:50
I'm in heaven, I never get tired of this song. Thank you Bill. ![]() |

Would have been nice. The band was very engaging and interactive with the audience. The cello and violin players added a nice touch to all of their great songs. Fun evening! Saw them at the old Lincoln Theater in DC last week. Great show. In some measures I found the songs more accessible in the acoustic setting—only partially acoustic since the bass is electric, and the guitars are amplified and the drums miked. They took requests from a spontaneous Twitter request ("Everybody...now!") and sang "Window" a Capella to the winning tweeter down at her seat, which was dead in front of ours. How cool is that? Yes, a fun evening—even tho' Jeff Garlin wasn't really that funny—and for the third or fourth time we've seen them, they still haven't played "Ruby Falls." |
| deepwoodskev (In a town west of Chicago) | Posted: Apr 25, 2012 - 09:55 So very good. |
| renegade_X (My House) | Posted: Apr 25, 2012 - 09:53 This is the song that turned me onto Guster. Never stopped loving it. Although I like their other work, nothing else compares to this one. |
| TJS (Bradley, Il) | Posted: Apr 25, 2012 - 09:52 My absolute favorite Guster song/album. Thank you so much RP! |

| kingart (Brooklyn NY) | Posted: Apr 15, 2012 - 16:19 Guster is one fun and engaging sound. I've never heard a subpar tune from them. |
