Sad Trombone - Sting

Lyrics

words to study

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
