Medley
Odyssey/KC and The Sunshine Band/Barbra Streisand Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nights are lone since you went away

I think about you

All through the day

My buddy... My buddy...
Nobody quiet 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

It's over

All over

And soon somebody else

Will make a fuss about you

But how about me?

It's over

All over

And soon somebody else

Will tell the friends

About you

But how about me

He'll find somebody new

But what am I to do

I'd still remember you

When you have forgotten me

And maybe a baby

Will climb upon your knee

And put his arms around you

But how about me

My buddy... Your buddy





Misses you...

Kunming City, China? That is incredibly evil, cruel and irresponsible that they got the Asiatic Black Bear as a tiny pup, so it had zero training by it's mother how to survive in the wild, but the gov released it into the wild after they confirmed it was in good health, where it would surely not be able to survive. They could have at least sent it to a zoo anywhere in the world.

No real pictures from the story? None?

@jinamerica

We really hate seeing all these AI generated photos unrelated to the actual story. Stop it. Put more effort in your videos.

@minnahumble2294

I found it aggravating. The producers could at least have limited the images to black dogs. It’s goofy.

@@minnahumble2294 What do you expect? This whole video was of people completely unrelated to the story. Fake people telling a possible fake story.
