over the rhine - the trumpet child lyrics
the trumpet child will blow his h-rn
will blast the sky till it?s reborn
with gabriel?s power and satchmo?s grace
he will surprise the human race
the trumpet he will use to blow
is being fashioned out of fire
the mouthpiece is a glowing coal
the bell a burst of wild desire
the trumpet child will riff on love
thelonious notes from up above
he?ll improvise a kingdom come
accompanied by a different drum
the trumpet child will banquet here
until the lost are truly found
a thousand days, a thousand years
n-body knows for sure how long
the rich forget about their gold
the meek and mild are strangely bold
a lion lies beside a lamb
and licks a murderer?s outstretched hand
the trumpet child will lift a gl-ss
his bride now leaning in at last
his final aim to fill with joy
the earth that man all but destroyed
