Best Of 2

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 triped 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 her name.
Wish that i had found the 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.

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.

I see her walking in the velvet moonlight
But then she hides behind the clock of midnight
And as i look to see her face
She disappears without a trace...

Sometimes i find myself in endless wandering
When i awaken in the misty morning
And i must look to find my way
As i await the end of day.
Dream lady... dream lady...

And i await the end of day
Till nighttime comes again to stay
Dream lady... dream lady... dream lady...

I know the times the times are hard to bear
It's hard to find someone to really care
But before i went down and out
Here's what i used to think about, think about:

London bridge is always fallin' down,
But there it stood within the heart of town
Reminding everyone of life behind and life to come

The changes taking place are everywhere
The centuries past have nothing to compare
Where they stand, where they trip and fall
Watch the writing on the wall, on the wall

London bridge is fallin' down at last,
And so another memory of the past
Has fell beneath the blade, but soon the dead may be repaid

I know things just can't evolve for all eternity
The thoughts will leave, will never die, and now so you can see

London bridge is finally fallin' down,
It packed it up and shipped it outta town
And though the horror's gone, the memory will linger on
London bridge is finally fallin' down,
It used to stand within the heart of town
Reminding everyone of life behind and life to come
London bridge is finally fallin' down.....

Always look so good on the outside
When you get to believin' it's true,
Then you know that you're on your way
People tug on your shirt, say you're lucky
You've got ev'rything you want, but you don't
Yet you dare not say
Go downtown people runnin' around
They climb slowly draggin' you downtown,
Horns make a dent in your mind
Plush rooms make a blindin' your eye to see,
Blindin' me. light, lovely light,
Won't ya' shine in my window
Love, precious love won't ya' fill ev'ry room,
Been too long on the road.
Maybe cynics veins are my life blood
Maybe bitin' the hand that i feed so i'll try
Try to understand what it is that devours your freedom,
Makes you drop what you used to hold in your heart.
All the things you planned
Go upstairs with a someone who says she cares,
Like the devil she does,
What comes ever into your mind?
Then gone, leavin' you with the coldest room,
Oldest gloom. warm, won't you be,
Please be there in my winter.
Love, precious love won't ya' come full circle,
Been too long on the road.
How can i do this to myself?
Have i taken leave of my senses?
What kind of changes make a man
Want to tear down all his fences
Whoa, i'd like to know. home ever home,
How could i ever doubt you
Love, precious love, how could i live without you?
Been too long on the road.

Watchin' you move across the floor
You're fire up my mind can't take it no more
You're a fancy dancer
Makin' me blind so i can't see
You're a fancy dancer
And you ain't no good for me
You know you're comin' on strong
You're my favorite misery

You captured my soul - imprisoned my heart
You know you control whatever you start
You're fancy dancer
And it ain't too hard to see
You're fancy dancer
And you'll make a fool of me
I know it won't be for long
Until you dance a new song
But just for tonight won't you dance your dance for me

I'm not the first and i won't be the last
Don't want your future - just make the night last
C'mon fancy dancer
Make me blind so i can't see
You're a fancy dancer
And you ain't no good for me
Yeh, we both knew from the start
You'd try do dance with my heart
But just for tonight won't you dance your dance for me

Baby i'm through runnin' it's true
I'd be a fool to try to escape you
Maybe i'm beat but oh what a sweet surrender

You keep your rights, i'll take your nights
No one can lose when we turn the lights out
Tastin' defeat, lovin' that sweet surrender

I'm givin' up myself to you but i didn't really lose at all
I gave the only love i've known and it never hurt me to fall

Now that it's done, so glad you won
I know our lives have only begun now
No more retreat, only my sweet surrender
