Goodnight, My Little Buddy

Sanoitukset

[Verse 1] I saved your little bowl beside the kitchen door Your favorite squeaky toy is lying on the floor I called your name three times, then once more very low But only bubbles answered me, and now I know [Pre-Chorus] You used to chase the jellyflies And nap beneath my chair I never knew a tiny heart Could leave such empty air [Chorus] Goodbye, my little buddy, I will miss you every day You made my smallest moments feel like holidays I’m crying in my bedroom, I can hardly sing this through But every funny, furry memory still belongs to you [Verse 2] I folded up your blanket, though it still smells like home I put your tiny picture in a frame of seafoam I told all of my friends that you were brave and sweet Then cried into a cushion by the end of the week [Pre-Chorus] If love could build a staircase I’d climb it to the blue And give one final gentle hug To say what I never knew [Chorus] Goodbye, my little buddy, I will miss you every day You made my smallest moments feel like holidays I’m crying in my bedroom, but I’m grateful that we knew A friendship small in size, but it was giant through and through [Bridge] Maybe somewhere past the tide You’re chasing toys again Maybe every wag and purr Still circles back like then I’ll keep your bowl, I’ll keep your song I’ll keep the love you grew And when I smile through all these tears That smile will come from you [Final Chorus] Goodbye, my little buddy, I will miss you every day Your memory will warm me when the water turns to gray I’m crying, but I love you, and I’ll carry that love through Goodnight, my little buddy—my heart belongs to you [Outro] Goodnight, my little buddy I’ll never forget you
