Lynn Anderson - Honey lyrics
[Lynn Anderson - Honey lyrics]
See the tree how big it's grown
But friend, it hasn't been too long
It wasn't big and I laughed at him
And he got mad
The first day that he planted it
It was just a twig
Then the first snow came and he ran out
To brush the snow away so it wouldn't die
Came runnin' in all excited
Slipped and almost hurt himself
And I laughed till I cried
He was always young at heart
Kinda dumb and kinda smart
And I loved him so
And I surprised him with a puppy
Kept me up all Christmas Eve two years ago
And it would sure embarrass me
When he'd come in from working late '
Cause he'd always know
If I'd been sittin' there and cryin' over
Some sad and silly late, late show
And honey, I miss you and I'm being good
And I'd love to be with you if only I could
He wrecked the car and he was sad
And so afraid that I'd be
Mad but what the heck
Though I pretended hard to be
Guess you could say he saw through me
And hugged my neck
He came home unexpectedly
And caught me crying needlessly in
The middle of the day
And it was in the early spring
When flowers bloom and robins
Sing he went away
And honey, I miss you and I'm being good
And I'd love to be with you if only I could
One day while I was not at home
And he was there
And all alone the angels came
Now all I have are memories of honey
And I wake up nights and call his 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
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 him and he got mad
The first day that he planted it
It was just a twig
But friend, it hasn't been too long
It wasn't big and I laughed at him
And he got mad
The first day that he planted it
It was just a twig
Then the first snow came and he ran out
To brush the snow away so it wouldn't die
Came runnin' in all excited
Slipped and almost hurt himself
And I laughed till I cried
He was always young at heart
Kinda dumb and kinda smart
And I loved him so
And I surprised him with a puppy
Kept me up all Christmas Eve two years ago
And it would sure embarrass me
When he'd come in from working late '
Cause he'd always know
If I'd been sittin' there and cryin' over
Some sad and silly late, late show
And honey, I miss you and I'm being good
And I'd love to be with you if only I could
He wrecked the car and he was sad
And so afraid that I'd be
Mad but what the heck
Though I pretended hard to be
Guess you could say he saw through me
And hugged my neck
He came home unexpectedly
And caught me crying needlessly in
The middle of the day
And it was in the early spring
When flowers bloom and robins

And honey, I miss you and I'm being good
And I'd love to be with you if only I could
One day while I was not at home

And I wake up nights and call his name
