And Aubrey was her name,
|
And not so very ordinary girl, or name . . .
|
But who's to blame,
|
For a love that wouldn't bloom,
|
For the hearts that never played in tune ?
|
|
Like a lovely melody,
|
That everyone can sing,
|
Take away the words that rhyme.
|
It doesn't mean a thing . . . hmmmm
|
|
And Aubrey was her name,
|
We tripped the light,
|
And danced together to the moon,
|
But where was June ?
|
No, it never came around,
|
If it did, it never made a sound . . .
|
Maybe I was absent,
|
Or was listening too fast,
|
Catching all the words,
|
But then, the meaning going past . . . hmmmm
|
|
Oh, how I miss the girl,
|
And I'd go a thousand times around the world,
|
Just to be,
|
Closer to her, than to me.
|
|
And Aubrey was her name,
|
I never knew her,
|
But I loved her just the same,
|
I loved her name . . .
|
|
Wish that I had found a way,
|
And the reasons that would make her stay . . .
|
I have learned to lead a life,
|
Apart from all the rest,
|
If I can't have the one I want.
|
I'll go without the best . . . hmmmm
|
|
Oh, how I miss the girl,
|
And I'd go a million times around the world,
|
Just to say,
|
She had been mine for a day!
