-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... |
| [03:53.74] |
