Aubrey Lyrics - Perry Como

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 

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 

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 

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!
