Bobby Goldsboro - Honey lyrics

Your rating:

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 till 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 I would sure embarrass 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

And honey, I miss you
and I'm bein' 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

And honey, I miss you
and I'm bein' good
And I'd love to be with you
if only I could

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 grow up
And a small cloud passes overhead
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
And I laughed at her and she got mad
the first day that she planted it
was just a twig
