See the tree how big it's grown

And it wasn't very 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

It wouldn't die

Came runnin' in all excited
Slipped and almost hurt herself
And I laughed 'til 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

And it would sure embarass her

When I came in from workin' late
'Cause I would know

That she'd been sittin' there and cryin'
Alnight

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
And 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 caught her cryin' needlesly
In the middle of the day

And it was in the early Spring
When flowers bloom and Robins sing

She went away

Yes one day while 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 over head
And cries down on the flower bed

That Honey loved

Honey honey honey
I miss you

And I'm being through

I long to be with you

If only I could

Honey honey honey
You know I miss you

Yes I do

And I try to be with you

Honey honey honey
I want to be with you

If only I could
