Honey lyrics

See the tree how big it`s grown
But friend it hasn`t been too long
It wasn`t big.
I laughed at her and she got mad
The first day that she planted it
Was just a twig

Then the first snow came
And she ran out to brush the snow away
So it wouldn`t die
Came runnin` in all excited
Slipped and almost hurt herself
And I laughed `til I cried

She was always young at heart
Kinda dumb and kinda smart
And I loved her so
And I surprised her with a puppy
Kept me up all Christmas Eve
Two years ago

And it would sure embarass her
When I came in from workin` late
`Cause I would know
That she`d been sittin` there and cryin`
Over some sad and silly
Late, late show

Chorus:
And Honey I miss you
And I`m being good
And I`d love to be with you
If only I could

She wrecked the car and she was sad
And so afraid that I`d be mad
But what the heck
Though I pretended hard to be
Guess you could say she saw through me
And hugged my neck

I came home unexpectedly
And caught her cryin` needlesly
In the middle of the day
And it was in the early Spring
When flowers bloom and Robins sing
She went away

Chorus

One day while I was not at home
While she was there and all alone
The angels came
Now all I have is memories
Of Honey and I wake up nights
And call her name

Now my life`s an empty stage
Where Honey lived and Honey played
And love grew up
And a small cloud passes over head
And cries down on the flower bed
That Honey loved

And see the tree how big it`s grown
But friend, it hasn`t been too long
It wasn`t big
I laughed at her and she got mad
The first day that she planted it
Was just a twig
