Perry Como — Aubrey

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!
