Through the twilight
I can hear the humming of
A melancholy coon. (Mmmm-mmmm)
Oh, the memories
That still linger
I thank you mister moon.
And although I've never smiled
Winter, summer, autumn too.
Now here's one tune to remind me
Why I feel so blue.
Tubas in the moonlight
Playing for me all night
Tell me what I want to hear
Am I only dreaming
Am I only scheming
Stars above me
Shining brightly
Why can't she be
Sitting there beside me
Tubas in the moonlight
Will bring my loved one home.
Tubas in the moonlight
Will bring my loved one home.
