David Gates wrote this song after watching the movie Breakfast at Tiffany's, starring Audrey Hepburn. The song itself had nothing to do with the movie, but moodiness of the film had set him up to write it.
Gates: "I hardly ever write any 'name' songs, but I loved that name and the way it flowed in that particular melody. That may be the best melody I've ever written."
- Lyrics:
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 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 to fast
Catching all the words, but then the meaning going past
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
And Aubrey was her name
I never knew her, but I loved her just the same
I loved…- Presented here as an arrangement for Brass Quintet and supportive percussion.
