Lynn Anderson Honey Lyrics

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 thru 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
