"Trombone" lyrics

Trombone, come play your song
Make it the one about good love gone wrong
I'm so blue and all alone
So blow something sad and slow for me, trombone

I've been told time's a healer
Still I can't shake the love I lost
It seems my destiny's to count the cost
No one calls, who can blame 'em
They're all out of sympathy
Lord, how I could use some company
At times like these some sweet release

Trombone, come play your song
Make it the one about good love gone wrong
My one true love has gone
So blow something sad and slow for me, trombone

I should be on the road to glory
Not this barren, bleak terrain
I pray I'll never be this way again
Spilling from an upper story
Comes a half-remembered melody
And I'm whistling the missing harmony
In B, or C, oh please

Trombone, come play your song
Make it the one about good love gone wrong
I'm so, so blue and all alone
So oil up your slide trombone
My one true love has gone
I'm sitting here in limbo, dear
I need you near
Trombone
Trombone
Trombone
