[Verse 1]
At twilight with shadows a-falling
At the close of a long lonely day
I fancy I hear a voice calling
It's my ol' pal of yesterday

[Verse 2]
Ol' pal, I'm so blue since you left me
Life's been a burden to bear
I wonder, ol' pal, if you miss me
I wonder if you still care

[Verse 3]
Does your memory stray to yesterday
And picture hearts that were light and gay?
Won't you come back? For I still love you
You're my ol' pal of yesterday

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
Ol' pal, ol' pal, ol' pal, don't you know I miss you?
Yeah, I miss you all the time you're away
Won't you come back? For I still love you
Yeah, you're my ol' pal of yesterday
