Aubrey - BREAD - Lyrics
And Aubrey was her name
A not so very ordinary girl or name ...

I was a 19 year old boy (now 51) in the hospital for a month after a horrific car accident. My friend was killed in that accident. I spent a lot of time thinking about my life and really everything while lying in that hospital bed day after day. Night after night. Then late one night, I had the tv on and it was the internal hospital channel with news about different things. Mellow music accompanied the news. I'll never forget when Aubrey came on in that quiet room late at night as my broken body (and spirit) just listened to this beautiful song. I knew who Bread was and recognized the voice but I had never heard Aubrey before. I stared at the wall with tears in my eyes as I thought about my friend, my future, and how amazing it would be to know this girl named Aubrey. I thought to myself if I ever fall in love and get married I am going to have a daughter and name her Aubrey. Well, I did fall in love but I had 4 boys and never got the chance to name a daughter Aubrey. Nevertheless, every single time I listen to this song, I think back to that hospital room when I had no idea where my life would head. Music is powerful. And this song connects me to days gone by.

One of the most underrated band and singer-songwriter David Gates. One of the greatest Ballads of all time IMHO.

6 weeks my daughter Aubrey was in the NICU and me and her mother would listen to this song and cry our eyes out hoping she would be ok and get to come home. After 6 weeks she was able to come home completely healthy. She’s turning 4 in a few months. This song chokes me up every time I hear it.

Beverly and I lived next door to each other from day one. I was born in Oct. of 1959 and she Feb. of 1960. Our mothers took turns baby sitting each other when needed. At the age of 3 we were inseparable. By our freshman year of highschool we found ourselves having a lot different feelings toward one another. We realized that we weren't just going to be friends anymore. We had a lot of different feelings going on inside ourselves. We gave each other promise rings our junior year. Three years later we were engaged. Two year later we were married. In 1982 we had twin girls! Two years later she was dead (May 30, 1984). "But Where Was June, It Never Came Around??? " . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I'm 61 yrs. old now and this song still brings tears every time I listen to it. Memories from the past. There has been know one scene or will there ever be. Beverly was the only one. SHE WAS TAKEN FROM ME BY A DRUNK DRIVER (he lived). My life was never the same again. To my Beverly, You were MY EVERYTHING! It's been 36 years now and I Still Love You and Will Love YOU Forever... R.I.P. Babe, when I leave this earth please "FIND ME" 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Another year (11-20-20) has passed and I find myself here again. Beverly was more then just a wife. She was a Mother, My Soul Mate, Lover and My Best Friend. She left me with beautiful 2 year old twin daughters. I put everything else on hold to raise them up. There were some difficult times but we got through them. It was difficult to get them to understand that their mother would not be coming back but she left loving them with all her heart. At night when we lied down to go to sleep I sometimes could still hear her singing lullabies to the girls. She had a beautiful voice. The girls are all grown up now and have families of there own. They gave me 6 wonderful grandchildren and one great grandson to spoil. Yes I am guilty of that! As the years slowly pass by I find myself thinking of what we missed and what might of been if you were still here my dear. You are still my Soul Mate, Lover and Best Friend. I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER.... 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

Bread has composed so many songs with mesmerizing melody and lyrics that read like poetry. I wish more songs were written as eloquent and articulate nowadays.

I bought Breads greatest hits back when I was about 17 or 18. 63 now and I thought it was the best music ever. I played and played that album in my bedroom constantly. Listening to this and other bread records takes me right back to those days.

Who can hear this music without shedding tears? It's the guitar, it's the melody, it's the chord progressions, it's the lyrics, and it's David Gates. Oh, and the luscious string accompaniment. But it's also more than the sum of all these elements. It's memories of people that have touched us for a moment and then disappeared from our lives. It's the divine attribute we call love, especially the love that began but never was able to blossom, so we just fill in that brief memory with our imagination and dream of what could have been. This is what makes good music such a powerful force for good. David Gates had a unique gift, for sure, and his songs are both uplifting and a bit tragic, but unmistakably beautiful! The world is better for songs like "Aubrey."

After my dad's passing when I was 6, my uncle who was in the military came to visit us for a week. He was grieving and felt so sorry for me, I remember after lunch or dinner he would either brush my hair or just company me drawing. He always sang this song, changing the name "Aubrey" to my name, Okky. He too have passed on in 1997.

RIP Papa and Uncle Zeb.

My dad fell in love with this song, learned to play it on his guitar and sang along while playing. He loved this song so much that he named me after it. I've always loved this song and it's felt special to me, and I always find myself coming back to it throughout my years and it always brings back the same feeling. ❤️

I named my sweet baby girl in 1973, after this song, I cried every time I heard it, I played it for hours on end, before she was born, hoping, I would have a baby girl, and then she came, September 20, 73, we were so over joyed, we gave her 3 birthday parties! She passed away March 22, 2017, and now I dedicate this song to my sweet baby girl, Lynda Aubree Ward....May she forever Rest In Peace and know how much she is deeply missed and Loved by her sister and

My dad and I used to dance to this song in the kitchen when I was little. I’m 18 now and those kitchen dances are long gone, I miss those times a lot. Though this song is sad, it holds a lot of sweet memories for me.

My dad always used to play these old songs when I was a kid, and Bread's songs were always my favorites. There's just something about the way they write their songs, it's pure poetry
