Honey Lyrics - Hank Snow

See the tree how big it's grown but friends 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 

I surprised her with a puppy kept me up all Christmas Eve 

Two years ago 

And it would sure embarrass her when I came home 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 and found her crying needlessly 

In the middle of the day 

And it was in the early spring when flowers bloom and robins 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 

Yes one day while I wasn't 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 

A small cloud passes overhead and cries down on the flower bed 

Where honey loved 

And honey I miss you and I'm being good 

And I'd love to be with you if only I could
