Through the twilight, / I can hear the humming 
Of a melancholy tune.
For the memories that still linger,/ I thank you Mr. 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 dreamin'?
Am I only schemin?
Stars above me, 
shining brightly...
Why can't she be 
sitting here beside me?
Tubas in the moonlight
Will bring my loved ones home
--Dave Gannett, "Tubas From Hell"
