Honey Songtext**lf**von Howard Carpendale**lf**See the tree, how big it''s grown,**lf**But friend it hasn''t been too long, it wasn''t big.**lf**I laughed at her and she got mad,**lf**The first day that she planted it, was just a twig.**lf****lf**Then the first snow came**lf**And she ran out to brush the snow away.**lf**So it wouldn''t die.**lf**Came runnin'' in all excited,**lf**Slipped and almost hurt herself.**lf**I laughed till I cried.**lf****lf**She was always young at heart,**lf**Kinda dumb and kinda smart and I loved her so.**lf**I surprised her with a puppy,**lf**Kept me up all Christmas Eve two years ago.**lf****lf**And it would sure embarrass her**lf**When I came home from workin'' late**lf**''cause I would know**lf**That she''d been sittin'' there and cryin''**lf**Over some sad and silly late, late show.**lf****lf**[Refrain]**lf**And honey, I miss you but I''m bein'' good.**lf**And I''d love to be with you if only I could.**lf****lf**She wrecked the car and she was sad**lf**And so afraid that I''d be mad but what the heck.**lf**Though I pretended hard to be,**lf**Guess you could say she saw through me**lf**And hugged my neck.**lf****lf**I came home unexpectedly**lf**And found her cryin'' needlessly in the middle of a day.**lf**And it was in the early spring**lf**When flowers bloom and robins sing, she went away.**lf****lf**[Refrain]**lf****lf**Yes, one day while I was not at home**lf**She was there and all alone the angels came.**lf**Now all I have is memories of honey**lf**And I wake up nights and call her name.**lf****lf**Now my life''s an empty stage**lf**Where honey lived and honey played and love grew up.**lf**And a small cloud passes overhead**lf**And cries down on the flower bed that honey loved.**lf****lf**[Refrain]
