Honey — текст песни (Charlie Louvin)

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 running 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
It would sure embarrass her when I came in from working late cause I would know
That she`d been sitting there and 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 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 caught her crying needlessly in the middle of the day
It was in the early spring when flowers bloom and robbins sing she 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 when 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
See the tree how big it`s grown but friend it hasn`t been too long it wasn`t big
And I laughed at her and she got mad the first day that she planted it was just a twig
