Lyrics:
Nights are long since you went away I think about you all thru the day My buddy, My buddy, No buddy quite so true
Miss your voice, The touch of your hand Just long to know that you understand My buddy, My buddy, Ooh 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
Yes I do
