Life is a book that we study

Some of its leaves bring a sigh

There it was written by a buddy

That we must part, you and I



Nights are long since you went away

I think about you all through the day

My buddy, my buddy

Nobody quite so true



Miss your voice, the touch of your hand

Just long to know that you understand

My buddy, my buddy

Your buddy misses you



Miss your voice, the touch of your hand

Just long to know that you understand

My buddy, my buddy

Your buddy misses you



Your buddy misses you, yes I do
