Sad Trombone - Shaggy&Sting[00:00:01]
From way back here on the bandstand[00:00:28]
She looked like a goddess in the lights[00:00:31]
At some point in the set she'd turn her face[00:00:35]
And glance my way most nights[00:00:38]
I'd take a little solo I'd play for her she'd smile return the favor[00:00:41]
I'd make the sweetest love to her with every semiquaver[00:00:48]
There's a sadness in your playing she said[00:00:54]
That penetrates my bones[00:00:58]
Something in your intonation something in your tone[00:01:02]
Always understated never overblown[00:01:08]
My name for you is Sad Trombone[00:01:15]
Yes my name for you is Sad Trombone[00:01:22]
It seemed like she'd found the secret key to my soul[00:01:32]
And gathered up my broken life and somehow made me whole[00:01:39]
We'd share a room together my bandmates were all green[00:01:45]
And they warned me 'bout some story in a movie they'd all seen[00:01:52]
There's a sadness in your playing she said[00:01:59]
That penetrates my bones[00:02:02]
Something in your intonation something in your tone[00:02:06]
Always understated never overblown[00:02:13]
My name for you is Sad Trombone[00:02:19]
Yes my name for you is Sad Trombone[00:02:25]
Now when the light goes out and the music stops and the curtains close[00:02:29]
That's when your heartbeat race[00:02:35]
Sadness on your face and you can't take no more[00:02:37]
I see you searching for your smile[00:02:42]
We haven't seen that in a while[00:02:46]
Now when the light goes out and the music stops and the curtains close[00:02:49]
That's Sad Trombone[00:02:55]
We never made much money the ticket counts were light[00:02:57]
We'd count the bars until we reached some hotel for the night[00:03:03]
She was my morning coffee the butter on my toast[00:03:10]
'Til she got a better offer from some outfit on the coast[00:03:16]
Oh there's a sadness in my playing now[00:03:23]
A desperate cry a moan[00:03:27]
Something in my choice of notes[00:03:30]
Something in my tone[00:03:34]
Sliding to the deepest bass from a lonely baritone[00:03:37]
I guess I'll always be the Sad Trombone[00:03:43]
I guess I'll always be the Sad Trombone[00:03:50]
It's an old old story and one you've probably heard[00:04:07]
You start out in a major key then you're down a minor third[00:04:14]
Aimlessly sliding sinking like a stone[00:04:21]
It doesn't get no deeper than the scraps that you've been thrown[00:04:27]
But some things they just stay with you long after they have flown[00:04:34]
And it always comes back down to the bone[00:04:41]
And it always comes back down to the bone[00:04:48]
Down to the bone[00:04:57]
Down to the bone[00:05:04]
