-Bobby Goldsboro |
[00:09.82] |
|
[00:10.87] |
See the tree how big it's grown |
[00:13.48] |
But friend it hasn't been too long |
[00:15.99] |
It wasn't big. |
[00:21.04] |
I laughed at her and she got mad |
[00:23.70] |
The first day that she planted it |
[00:26.09] |
Was just a twig. |
[00:31.56] |
The the first snow came |
[00:33.86] |
And she ran out to brush the snow away |
[00:36.40] |
So it wouldn't die. |
[00:41.78] |
Came runnin' in all excited |
[00:44.46] |
Slipped and almost hurt herself |
[00:46.98] |
I laughed till cried. |
[00:50.49] |
|
[00:51.57] |
She was always young at heart |
[00:54.60] |
Kind a dumb and kind a smart |
[00:57.33] |
And I loved her so. |
[01:02.05] |
I surprised her with a puppy |
[01:05.03] |
Kept me up all christmas eve |
[01:07.77] |
Two years ago. |
[01:10.58] |
|
[01:12.24] |
And it would sure embarrass her |
[01:14.78] |
When I came home from working late |
[01:17.79] |
'Cause I would know |
[01:22.50] |
That she'd been sittin' there and cryin'. |
[01:25.97] |
Over some sad and silly late late show: |
[01:29.58] |
|
[01:31.46] |
And Honey I miss you |
[01:36.57] |
And I'm being good |
[01:41.75] |
And I'd love to be with you |
[01:46.85] |
If only I could. |
[01:50.12] |
|
[01:53.31] |
She wrecked the car and she was sad |
[01:56.18] |
And so afraid that I'd be mad |
[01:59.07] |
But what the heck. |
[02:03.61] |
Though I pretended hard to be |
[02:06.44] |
Guess you could say she saw through me |
[02:09.33] |
And hugged my neck. |
[02:13.88] |
I came home unexpectedly |
[02:16.43] |
And found her crying needlessly |
[02:19.59] |
In the middle of the day |
[02:24.08] |
And it was in the early spring |
[02:27.07] |
When flowers bloom and robins sing |
[02:29.70] |
She went away. |
[02:31.61] |
|
[02:33.26] |
And Honey I miss you |
[02:38.24] |
And I'm being good |
[02:43.29] |
And I'd love to be with you |
[02:48.52] |
If only I could |
[02:51.83] |
|
[02:55.09] |
One day while I wasn't home |
[02:57.66] |
While she was there and all alone |
[03:00.62] |
The angels came. |
[03:05.26] |
Now all I have is memories |
[03:08.11] |
Of Honey and I wake up nights |
[03:11.00] |
And call her name. |
[03:15.85] |
Now my life's an empty stage |
[03:18.22] |
Where Honey lived and Honey played |
[03:21.11] |
And love grew up. |
[03:25.53] |
A small cloud passes over head |
[03:28.22] |
And cries down in the flower bed |
[03:31.13] |
That Honey loved. |
[03:33.43] |
|
[03:35.86] |
See the tree how big it's grown |
[03:38.39] |
But friend it hasn't been too long |
[03:41.26] |
It wasn't big. |
[03:45.68] |
I laughed at her and she got mad |
[03:48.56] |
The first day that she planted it |
[03:50.98] |
Was just a twig... |
