Girl Named Tom Aubrey
[Verse 1]
And Aubrey was her name
A not so very ordinary girl or name
But who's to blame
For her love that wouldn't bloom?
For the hearts that never played in tune?
Like a lovely melody everyone can sing
Take away the words that rhyme, it doesn't mean a thing
[Verse 2]
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 nevеr made a sound
Maybe I was absent or was listеning too fast?
Catching all the words, but then the meaning going past
[Bridge]
But, God, I miss the girl
And I'd go a thousand times around the world
Just to be closer to her than to me
[Verse 3]
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 do without the best
[Outro]
But 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
