See
the tree, how big it's grown
But
friends, it hasn't been too long, it wasn't big
I laughed at her and she got mad
The
first day she planted it, was just a twig
Then
the first snow came
And
she ran up to brush the snow away so it wouldn't die,
Came
running in, all excited
Slipped
and almost hurt herself and I laughed till I cried
She
was always young at heart, kind of dumb and kind
of smart
And
I loved her so.
And
I surprised her with a puppy
Kept
me awake all Christmas Eve two years ago
And
it sure embarrass her when I came in from
working late
Cause
I would know
That
she'd be sitting there crying
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.
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 crying needlessly in the the
middle of the day
And
it was in early spring, when flowers bloom
and robins sing
She
went away.
And
Honey I miss you, and I'm being good
And
I would love to be with you if only I could
One
day while I was not at home
While
she was there 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.
