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 lovely melody that everyone can sing,
Take away the words that ɾhyme it doesn't mean a thing.
And Aubrey was [Am7]her name.
We tɾipped the light and [Bm]danced together to [C7]the moon,
But where was [Am7]June.
No it never came around.
If it did it never made a sound,
Maybe [Am]I was [Am7]absent or was [Am7]listening to [C7]fast,
Catching all [Em]the words, but then the meaning going past,
But God I miss the girl,
And I'd go a thousand [Bm]times around the world just to [C7]be
Closer to [C7]her than to [C7]me.
And Aubrey was [Am7]her name,
I never knew her, but I loved her just the same,
I loved her name.
Wish that I had found the way
And the ɾeasons that would make her stay.
I have learned to [C7]lead a life apart from all [Em]the ɾest.
If I can't have the one I want, I'll do without the best.
But how I miss the girl
And I'd go a million [C7]times around the world just to [C7]say
She had been mine for [Dm7]a day.
