| [00:27.30] | See the tree, how big it's grown |
| [00:31.98] | But friend, it hasn't been too long it wasn't big |
| [00:37.62] | I laughed at her and she got mad |
| [00:38.25] | The first day that she planted it, was just a twig |
| [00:41.70] | Then the first snow came and she ran out |
| [00:42.48] | To brush the snow away so it wouldn't die |
| [00:45.12] | Came runnin' in all excited slipped and almost hurt herself |
| [00:48.03] | And I laughed till I cried |
| [00:48.66] | She was always young at heart |
| [00:49.77] | Kinda dumb and kinda smart and I loved her so |
| [00:52.38] | And I surprised her with a puppy |
| [00:53.04] | Kept me up all Christmas Eve two years ago |
| [01:15.69] | And it would sure embarrass her |
| [01:16.32] | When I came in from workin' late 'cause I would know |
| [01:24.54] | That she'd been sittin there an' cryin' |
| [01:25.26] | Over some sad and silly late, late show |
| [01:26.22] | And Honey, I miss you |
| [01:27.54] | And I'm bein' good |
| [01:27.96] | And I'd love to be with you |
| [01:28.47] | If only I could |
| [01:28.77] | She wrecked the car and she was sad |
| [01:30.27] | And so afraid that I'd be mad, but what the heck |
| [01:32.82] | Though I pretended hard to be |
| [01:33.42] | Guess you could say she saw through me and hugged my neck |
| [01:36.00] | I came home unexpectedly |
| [01:38.64] | And caught her cryin' needlessly in the middle of the day |
| [01:39.87] | And it was in the early spring |
| [01:40.50] | When flowers bloom and robins sing, she went away |
| [02:27.57] | And Honey, I miss you |
| [03:21.30] | And I'm bein' good |
| [03:21.93] | And I'd love to be with you |
| [03:22.44] | If only I could |
| [03:22.74] | One day while I was not at home |
| [03:25.86] | While she was there and all alone the angels came |
| [03:28.83] | Now all I have is memories of Honey |
| [03:29.64] | And I wake up nights and call her name |
| [03:32.67] | Now my life's an empty stage |
| [03:33.21] | Where Honey lived, and Honey played and love grew up |
| [03:34.89] | And a small cloud passes over head |
| [03:36.45] | And cries down on the flower bed that Honey loved |
| [03:40.08] | And see the tree, how big it's grown |
| [03:42.90] | But friend, it hasn't been too long, it wasn't big |
| [03:44.10] | And I laughed at her, she got mad |
| [03:44.73] | The first day that she planted it, was just a twig |
