Honey

[Intro]
Honey, I miss you
Honey, I love you

[Verse 1]
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
It was just a twig
And then the first snow came
And she ran out to brush the snow away
So it wouldn't die
She came running in all excited
She slipped and almost hurt herself
And I laughed 'til I cried

[Verse 2]
She was always young at heart
Kinda dumb and kinda smart
And I loved her so
I surprised her with a puppy
It kept me up all Christmas eve
Two years ago
And it would sure embarrass her
When I came home from working late
Because I would know
That she'd been sitting there and crying
Over some sad and silly late, late, late, late show

[Chorus]
Oh honey, I miss you
And I'm being good
And I'd love to be with you
If only I could

[Verse 3]
She wrecked the car and she was sad
So afraid that I'd be mad, Lord
But what the heck (It's only a car)
Though I pretended hard to be
Don't you know, honey saw through me
And hugged my neck
I came home unexpectedly
And found honey crying needlessly
In the middle of the day
And it was in the early spring
When flowers bloom and robins sing
That's when she went away

[Verse 4]
One day while I wasn't at home
And she was there and all alone
The angels came
Now all I have left is memories of honey
And I wake up nights lying and I call her name
Now my life's an empty stage
Where honey lived and honey played
Yes, and love grew up
A small cloud passes overhead
And cries down in the flower bed
That honey loved

[Chorus/Outro]
Oh honey, I miss you
And I'm being good
And I'd love to be with you
If only I could

Oh how I miss you
And don't you know that I'm being good
And I'd love to be with you
If only I could

Oh, I miss you
And don't you know that I'm being good
And I'd love to be with you...
