Aubrey

And Aubrey was her name
A 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 lonely melody that everyone can sing
Take away the words that rhyme
It doesn't mean a thing

And Aubrey was her name
We tripped the light and danced together to the moon
But where was June
Though it never came around
If it did, it didn't make a sound
Maybe I was absent or was listening too fast,
catching all the words but the meaning going past
And God 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 live a life apart from all the rest
If I can't have the one I want, I'll do without the best
And 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
