Honey
recorded by Bobby Goldsboro
written by Bobby Russell
 
C
See the tree how big it's grown
 
But friend it hasn't been too long
   G7
It wasn't big
 
I laughed at her and she got mad
                                      C
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
      G7
So it wouldn't die
 
Came running in all excited
 
Slipped and almost hurt herself
      C
And I laughed till I cried
 
She was always young at heart
                                 G7
Kinda dumb and kinda smart and I loved her so
 
And I surprised her with a puppy
                                 C
Kept me up all Christmas Eve two years ago
 
And it would sure embarrass her
       
When I came in from working late
      G7
Cause I would know
 
That she'd been sitting there and crying
                        C
Over some sad and silly late late show
 
           G7
And honey I miss you
              C
And I'm being good
                   G7
And I'd love to be with you
          C
If only I could
 
 
She wrecked the car and she was sad
 
And so afraid that I'd be mad
    G7
But what the heck
 
Though I pretended hard to be
 
Guess you could say she saw through me
    C
And hugged my neck
 
I came home unexpectedly
 
And caught her crying needlessly
       G7
In the middle of the day
 
And it was in the early Spring
 
When flowers bloom and Robins sing
    C
She went away
 
            G7
And honey I miss you
              C
And I'm being good
                   G7
And I'd love to be with you
          C
If only I could
 
 
One day while I was not at home
 
While she was there and all alone
    G7
The angels came
 
Now all I have is memories of Honey
                         C
And I wake up nights and call her name
 
Now my life's an empty stage
                                    
Where Honey lived and Honey played
    G7
And love grew up
 
And a small cloud passes overhead
 
And cries down on the flower bed
     C
That Honey loved
 
And see the tree how big its grown
 
But friend it hasn't been to long
   G7
It wasn't big
 
I laughed at her and she got mad
                                      C
The first day that she planted it was just a twig
