Sad Trombone

歌曲歌詞

From way back here on the bandstand

She looked like a goddess in the lights

At some point in the set she'd turn her face

And glance my way most nights

I'd take a little solo I'd play for her she'd smile return the favor

I'd make the sweetest love to her with every semiquaver

There's a sadness in your playing she said

That penetrates my bones

Something in your intonation something in your tone

Always understated never overblown

My name for you is Sad Trombone

Yes my name for you is Sad Trombone

It seemed like she'd found the secret key to my soul

And gathered up my broken life and somehow made me whole

We'd share a room together my bandmates were all green

And they warned me 'bout some story in a movie they'd all seen

There's a sadness in your playing she said

That penetrates my bones

Something in your intonation something in your tone

Always understated never overblown

My name for you is Sad Trombone

Yes my name for you is Sad Trombone

Now when the light goes out and the music stops and the curtains close

That's when your heartbeat race

Sadness on your face and you can't take no more

I see you searching for your smile

We haven't seen that in a while

Now when the light goes out and the music stops and the curtains close
