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 it 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' needlessly,
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 grew up.
And a small cloud passes overhead,
And cries down on the flower bed,
That Honey loved.
